Coolant Leak 2003 Ford Focus 2L Sign In

Coolant is leaking out of the black solid (not flexible) tube along the bottom of the picture, on top of the radiator. I called a mechanic here and he said it might be sealable with glue. And advice?

You shouldn't glue it. It won't hold. That tube is near the exhaust manifold and over time the heat, contraction, and expansion causes the plastic to become brittle and crack.


You can get it aftermarket around $20.
