Default Help Advice Please!

I have a 94 WRX and on the top left as you look at the radiator there is a small outlet feeding the header tank.

I have snapped this off from the radiator end plain accident, (idiot i know)

There is not enough of the radiator outlet to get the hose back onto.

any suggestions welcome, Tried to glue it yesterday with super glue and an epoxy glue but alas when she got warm it blew off

Please Please desperately

Mick

Hiya Mick,
Long time no speak.

These pesky plastic end tanks I am afraid, Northern Rads in Leeds do replacement Scoob rads (think in region of £100), or a trip to the breakers yard.

I tried all sorts of resins, etc on a crack in end tank, the temp and pressure gets them all to unstick.
