Default Where can I buy this part? auto trans to radiator piece



This is the piece that comes with a radiator, and connects a hose from the auto transmission to the bottom of the radiator. Not sure what it's called, but I need to find one!

I bought a radiator because this piece was leaking on mine. I thought the whole thing was pre-installed on the radiator and I would just clamp the hose onto it. But I found these pieces loose, so I just used the part I needed. Now I wanna get my $90 back from AutoZone

94 Accord wagon LX if that helps

Thanks in advance!

Think Star Auto has the part I was asking about?

Can you pick it up and mail it to me?

You bought a radiator for a manual car. Take it back and get the radiator for an auto. It's weird cause normally radiators tend to come fitted for either the manual or the auto and it just has a plastic cap around it for manual cars that don't need auto fluid coolers.

Also, a lot of times you can simply tighten that copper colored washer/nut in your above pic and it will seal it. It's important when you get a radiator to tighten that up before you install it.

No, I got the right radiator. I just took that piece and used it on my old radiator because that was the only part I needed. I just want to replace that piece and put in in the box so I can return the radiator.
