Can you still get these Ford plastic heater hose connectors?
Discussion
Hi all,
I need a new heater hose for my 2002 Ford Maverick 2.0L (Zetec). Ford discontinued the part years ago, but it ought to be easy to replace with generic hose - the only potential issue is the plastic connector in the photo.
It looks like a quick-connect type, but they usually have a white insert.
If it breaks while I'm trying to get the hose off (20-year-old brittle plastic etc), am I going to be able to get a replacement?
I've Googled around and I can find endless similar-looking connectors with the white inserts, but none that look like the ones already on the car.
