Working on my '88 Westy AT cooling system, I have removed this fitting, which is the
original plastic one. The small hose that attaches to it was leaking but I don't think
the fitting was. On close exam I do see a hairline crack on the inside, near the
opening. This fitting has a groove in it and used a round seal. I have a metal fitting
from some long ago repair on my '90, and it appears to be in good condition, but I do
not have a gasket.
I would like to finish this up this weekend.
Would "The Right Stuff" gasket maker work in this situation??
