Review on πŸ”Œ Dixon 179 1212 Splicer Fitting Barbed: Effortless Connection and Durability by Tim Ram

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Do all three! Big time saver!

Perfect fit as a replacement for 99 Suburban instead of Dorman Help! 47118 Heater Hose Tee. I also replaced the Dorman 800-422 heater hose connector and the ACDelco 15-5533 GM original equipment heater water shut-off valve. The heater hose tee was leaking and when I started to remove the hoses the water shut off valve broke and I found the heater hose fitting was next up. 17 years of use and those plastic parts were getting brittle and the problem was just waiting in the wings. The brass T made me feel like at least one of the pieces would last a little longer. The dealer not only replaces the parts, but also the hoses. I saved hundreds!
