i have a hose about the size of my ring finger comming from the bottom rear of my intake maniifold. It is close to the radiator fan switch also. the deal is that the owner before me plugged it off with a bolt. just tring to fix the cooling system and water wont cirrculate past the radiator fan switch unless this hose is plugged in soo where does it go? by the way the heater is by passed also. Ill take any suggestions thanks

He may have bypassed the throttle body which helps with colder air into the intake unless u are in temps below 15 degrees u don't need it connected.

Default thanks

That may be true. 1 question though when i pull my radiator fan switch out raidator fluid comes out and when i ground the fan switch wire the fan comes on. so it seems that the fan switch isn't getting hot enough to make the fan come on. Yet my engine still runs hot. for now i just grounded the cooling fan switch wire until i figure it out.
thanks for the reply
