Disco Mike mentioned about taking the (2) hoses out under the TB and just connecting them together which will hopefully solve my coolant smell at idle, any pics of the setup

 

You don't need pictures, just unhook the 2 hoses and connect5 them together with a curved piece of cooper tubing and 2 new hose clamps.

 

whats the diameter of this copper tubing and does it have to be copper? Cant be a plastic connector?

 

It can be what ever you want as long as it will take heat.

 

I did this to mine - I used a piece of 1/4 inch. got it at napa, had to buy a foot and asked to bend it while I was there, so they brought me a bender and I bent a "U" in it while he was ringing me up. for the pipe and two small hose clamps. Don't forget to bleed your system of air once your done.

PS, I used 80 grit sandpaper to rough up the area going into the hose. I'm not sure if thats necessary because the pressure is "through" it not "against" it. But it felt more secure doing it! I don't know if this is necessary either but, I safety wired it to a secure out of the way place - I don't want it rubbing, wearing, or just flopping around under my throttles.


Cheers

 

must i bleed the system and how do i bleen the system?
