Default help sealing T-peice in coolant hose

i have fitting a water temp gauge & got a alloy T-peice from SCS to fit into my coolant hose

prob is it leaks, told them. they said its cos i was using standard ford hose and it would have perished and told me to buy samcos

bought samcos, and guess what its still leaking!!!!!!!! argghh
