It sounds like a few people are replacing this connector. I didn't see any
mention of the outlet connector on the back of the block, so as a friendly
heads-up: If the T-connector has failed and the plastic outlet connector on
the back of the block is the same age, its failure won't be far behind. It
makes sense to replace them both at the same time because they're in the
same hose, you've already lost the coolant, neither one is very expensive,
and they're both fairly easy to replace.
When I bought my T-connector from SJM, Scott talked me into doing both.
Upon removal, I found that the fitting on the block was already half
disinegrated.
