Default Ffresh water flushing

02 25' Outlaw------On the hose leading down from the fresh water hose connecter (garden hose connector) I have a white plastic "T" which also connects to the hose that comes from the transom water pick up and goes into the hose to the impellor pump..........The "T" fitting is now cracked and I can't find the "T" anywhere.........The dealers here seem to carry only the Perko valve system , which won't fit in my setup....My buddy w/ a24 outlaw has a black plastic T but it came w/ the boat when he bought it---soooo we don't know where to buy one?????
What is every other Baja owner doing???? Thanks-----Mike--Tampa Bay

Check at your local Tractor Supply store they have all kind of "T" fitting.

Here's a link to plastic ones. http://www.mcmaster.com/#barbed-tube-tees/=w8eb4u

I think you will need a 1 1/4".

Just put a stainless T-fitting in there. You don't need or want the plastic ones with the check-ball valve in them. They just gum up with debris and stop working, or worse yet impede water flow when running the boat.

I think I bought might from CP Performance.

--Steel Outlawed and Sydwayz,,,Thanks, the plastic website was good and if I can't find a stainless steel T (which I never thought of) I will at least put a plastic one in while shopping.......I guess I could also go brass, because just before the T I have a 11/4 brass shut off valve because my intake hose is connected to a thru-transom water pick-up, instead of from the drive !!!!! Thanks to both of you---Mike--Tampa Bay

It was years ago when I sourced, but I think it's something like this:
