I need to repair / replace a broken fitting where the expansion tank tube enters a cooling system assembly on right side of engine, between engine and battery. Where can the parts needed be purchased? Below are a wide view and a close up of the broken fitting.[img:f4870d999c]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/72433_sable_close_up__1.jpg[/img:f4870d999c][img:f4870d999c]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/72433_sable_wider_view__3.jpg[/img:f4870d999c]

I have a 99 and havent had to yet...but it looks like the entire sysem hose is one piece...the alternative here might be to get a presone flush tee and clamp it in there?
