Thanks Gene.  Not sure if I missed it or what when I did a coolant search.

Hoping someone can help me for the name of the part or parts.

 

It's the plastic tube that runs under the edge of the engine cover and

connects the coolant system to the bleeder valve at the back of the engine

compartment.  I've seen a link to a kit to replace it on here before, but I

can't remember the name to look it up.  I think it was to a page on GoWesty

or Vanagain, but need a name to look it up.

 

 

 

Thanks,
