Year: 1988
Make: Ford
Model: Aerostar
Mileage: +50000

Question: When I was driving my aerostar down to do some laundry, for some reason it started to smoke on me, and when I stopped I found out that something has busted within the hose assembly leading to the radiator. The hoses are fine though, but this "T" shaped pipe piece that connects all three of the hoses is busted up to pieces. All I want to know is what is the true name of that part and how can I get it.

Maurice, I think you are talking about the lower radiator hose, and no, you cant just replace the Tee. You will have to replace all the hose's, which is really one hose.
