    • GEOFF!........you're in "general forums"
    • Help may be at hand IF you tell us the IMPORTANT DETAILS !........you haven't said what sort of car or what engine you need elbow for.
    You haven't said 1/2"  or 5/8"
     
    cheers

    May have a  spare 5/8 BSP NOS only which cost me $65....can't recall if straight or elbow, or if alloy or brass....
    Yell out if it's in your budget or not and if straight is an option, or must be elbow.
    cheers

    The budget is what i must pay for the item i need, the same item will fit 2.0L & 1600 manifolds, 
    i removed an elbow from a spare engine i have, that was stuffed more than the 1st elbow. My 
    concern now is the female BSP in the manifold also stuffed. I'm interested in the one you have, 
    i need a little more info. if it's alloy, no problem. Alloy in the water pump, the thermostat housing
    are all suffering the same fate by slack owners that top up their radiators with water not coolant.!!
    So, now i need to check the problem on 2 engines, if the cooling system is in good condition, operating
    as new our engines will last a lot longer.!! ... With maybe a little help from a water/alcohol injector.!!
     
    Cheers Geoff   ............from where did you purchase the 1 you have.???  As now i need 2.

    Go to any auto parts, industrial or bearing shop and you will be able to buy a brass elbow to suit. 

    Make it go FASTER!
