Obsolete hoses
Okay all, silly question. 2008 5.4 F250 and the hose to the coolant tank lost the small spring clip that holds it to the tank. Can't get one from Ford and the aftermarket doesn't make it. Stupid but I need the truck. Can't add coolant without this tank and can't buy the spring clip separately? I can't be the only guy that needs one of these hoses? Hose has the plastic clip that snaps to the bottom of the tank and goes to a "T" to tap into the rad hoses. No fitting at the bottom, just a clamp. Part number is 83CZ-8075-A. Thanks

Also check with Autozone/Oreilly's/Etc for Dorman spring clips. Autozone has part number 801-500 that is an assortment, maybe one of those would fit.
If you don't want to replace the hose or can't find some universal clips I'd say you could rig it up real quick to stay put with some wire.
