Heater hose ?????

There isn't any hose on where my heater hose should be, coming out of the passenger side firewall. I've been driving my car around like this for a while I guess and nothings happened. Anyway, where do I have to connect the heater hose to from the firewall, do I have to at all living in florida?

WOW.........

Anyway.. look at your lower radiator hose where it goes into the radiator... there should be a pipe sticking out of the radiator outlet tube and it stick up at about an 80 degree angle. This is where that hose went to (after a hard connection pipe that runs along the passenger side frame rail).

Hopefully, you either have a radiator without this pipe, or it is securely blocked off.

The other side of the heater core goes to a bent, funky tube that connects to an outflow tube on the rear iron housing, below the oil filter to the right of the rear trailing spark plug. This should also be blocked off if your heater core is not connected....


Either that, or the heater blew and someone slipced the hoses together.

As long as it isn't leaking, its not going to cause a problem
