motor aid fittings

[fl_bluebird_1983]

Does anyone know where to get fittings for the heater hose. I'm trying
to replace my water heater, and one of the fittings that splits the
heater line (Motor Aid) broke, tried to braise it back together but 23
year old pipe doesn't like to go back together. It is a 1" y connector
that reduces from 1" to 1/2" the 1/2" goes to the motor aid. Napa
doesn't carry them, it think they are brass/bronze.

Thanks

Bruce,

A Blue Bird School bus dealer may have the parts you need. They
supplied the 1" od heater valves for our 1977 - at a price! If the
part was used on a school bus (All American chassis) they may be your
best source.

Central States Bus Sales in Fenton, MO is one example:

I'm not certain of the url, it may be the links section of this
website...

Hope this helps.
