Parts needed in Flint Michigan - sources?
I am having coolant line issues. I have several lines that are just too old, brittle and fractured. Fortunately, I was camped when it happened. I had been experiencing a minor coolant leak. I was finding small amounts of coolant on various components below the expansion tank. The small diameter lines that connect to the expansion tank are all shot. I was spending the day going through the caoch before we dive south towards OKC. While poking around in the engine compartment, the source of the minor leak became apparent. as I investigated a bit further, it turned into a project of much larger proportions.
So, does anyone have a recommendation on a sourve for crimped hoses in the vicinity of Flint Michigan?
Follow up with good ending
Thanks for all the pointers. It turned out that if this had to happen anywhere, Flint was a great place. Within 6 miles of my camp site, I had approximately 26 parts places. I had 3 Truck dealers, International, Peterbuilt and Freightliner. I was parked at the campground next to a diesel mechanic, who was from Flint.
Mucho thanks to the great team at Car Quest at the corner of Rchfield and Dort Highway. I walked in, described the issues and they went to work. I had to go to four different sources to get everything, but the boys from Car Quest arranged it all.
On top of all that, the Annual Frankenmuth Car Show was in progress. I've never seen so many mechanics in one place at the same time.
Maybe I need to send another contribution to the Lady Of The Highways. ;)
