I need helping naming this piece to my car.
Ok, I have been having this overheating problem. As you all know. I changed the cap, therostat and everything. I was driving my car yesterday I could smell coolant burning. I opened my hood and followed the scent. Where the upper radiator hose connects to the engine. There is a little piece that has two bolts on it. The seal around that piece is done, and their is a leak coming from it. Does anyone know what that piece is called? It connects the hose to the engine.
Is it the hose that's leaking at the outlet cover or the cover to the head ?
There is no gasket there, just sealant. Just drain the coolant down a bit, remove the two bolts with a 10mm socket. clean the matting surfaces, apply a small bead of silicone sealant, window caulking, to each surface, let it sat up for about 10-15 minutes and install the outlet. Run the bolts down until some of the sealant squeezes out, stop for a few minutes. After about 15 minutes tighten the bolts. Refill the system.
