I am leaking oil and transmission fluid from my quick disconnect lines coming from radiator on the hose side. do I need to get a new quick disconnect fitting or do I need new lines?

Welcome to 2CarPros.

You can purchase the new fitting. I would try that first. Are you sure it is the fitting leaking? Also, can you upload a picture of the fitting that is leaking? They make a few different ones.

I'm in an area where the steel line rusts. That's is why I am asking.

I can send a picture of the fitting later. I think it’s the fitting because there is play in the line (I can wiggle it back and forth in he fitting) like it’s not tight enough.. I’m located in Vegas so it’s unlikely that it’s rust.
