Hello,
It's been a while since I've been here, lots of changes to site.
Anyhow, I still have my 97' Lumina with 3100 engine w/ original intake. The intake for this year has a type of quick disconnect coupling on the right side of the engine for a coolant line (heater hose?--can't remember), underneath the throttle body area next to the thermostat housing.
I've replaced the coupling before with an identical part, but it seems to still leak, a bad design it seems.
I while back, I remember on this site that someone replaced it entirely with a coupling of their own design.
My question is, what do you recommend I could replace it with so it doesn't leak again?
I guess I could come up with something on my own from the hardware store, but I figure I wouldn't reinvent the wheel.
Thanks.
