[Spits] Adapter In Spitfire Water Pump Housing

[Roger Elliott]

Hi,

I can't get the adapter out of my old water pump housing.  The adapter is next to the temperatue sensor and connects via hose to the intake manifold.

Does any one know if it is a standard pipe fitting that I would be able to pick up at a hardware store?  Or do I need to buy from one of the Spitfire suppliers?

If I can get it from a hardware store, does anyone know the size?

Thanks,
Roger
