Guys need some help. i have a slow static leak located right beneath the coolant resevoir where the 90deg elbow is connects to the resevoir. I cant tell if the resevoir is leaking or the elbow is leaking. so want to replace both to be safe. I am trying to find the part number for the coolant container and the 90deg elbow located right beneath the coolant resevoir. This is for a 2012 F150 FX2 5.0L. Any help greatly appreciated.

Pretty common problem, Pegasus has come out with a kit to replace the quick connect elbow... might be a better option than replacing with the same thing that failed the first time...

Yep, had the same issue. Finally learned about the kit from Pegasus, its great and comes with everything you need to replace that worthless stock elbow.
