I found a leak on my motorhome and removed the adapter that the fill hose goes to.  I am looking for a 90 degree elbow that is 1-1/4 Inch Pipe to 1-1/2 Inch MPT.

Does anyone know where to go?  I went to Lowes and it does not have that size.  Grrrr.

I bought my °90 elbow at Walmart.
Disregard, that was 3/4". Do you have a pic of what you're looking for? Maybe someone has fabricated one.

I'll have to get batteries for my camera and try that.

It is really just a gray plastic elbow that has male pipe thread at 1 1/4 inches that screws into the fresh water tank.  The other end is 1 1/4 inch barbed for the filler hose to clamp to.

I tried doing a search online but could not find an elbow.  I think I may try to search for the official Winnebago parts company.  Can't remember their name, but perhaps a google search will narrow the field.

Other plumbing supply paces, True value hardware. Last resort call Colaw's Salvage, Just google Colaw;s,   Maybe a farm supply store they usually have lots of plastic tank fittings.

You might try a pool supply place. It may be the same size as the fitting for the swimming pool pump. Last resort you can order the part from Winnebago. They have it listed in their parts and accessories catalog.

Actually, I was wrong.  It is a  1 1/4 by  1 1/4.  But was not able to read the number on the barb because it was chewed up by someone who used a screwdriver to pull off the old hose.  I got a magnifying glass and saw the 1/4.

Thank you all that responded.
