Talking It's Getting Cold in Texas...

Can anyone please help me out?

Could you run out to your car, pop the hood and snap a few shots with a digital camera for me? I need to know where exactly the heater hoses enter the firewall and where they go from there. (In the engine bay... in other words... radiator? Where do they connect in the bay itself?)

I'd like to get heat working this winter... who knows may even have a girlfriend to drive around and she'll probably want heat... so can you help a brother out?

Cheers
Cody

Me too. You should move to California - it is 81F today.

The FSM (in the stickies) has diagrams. These hoses will not be particularly visible in your average engine shot.

Oh come on! It ain't that cold, yet!

I think the heater hose goes into the fire wall from the left (passenger) side by the turbo's.

I think I'll become an atheist. Then it would be normal and OK to blow people OFF b/c of their religion. Wait, then I would have to move to California. Never mind. I wonder if these atheist ever get their questions **** on from Christians? Now that would be funny. I can't wait for those guys to ask a question so I can say"Sorry, I'm a Christian"lol

Talking

All religion aside I really meant to post this in the 2nd gen forum anyway since I own an FC, not an FD.

If a mod catches this and would be so kind as to move it I'd really appreciate that.

I'll check the stickies in the FC section as well. My Hanes manual doesn't show where the hoses go outsde of the firewall but maybe the FSM will.

Thanks,
Cody

it's not reccommended to cancel the Heater core in the FC

because that area of the motor no longer has coolant flowing through it.. and u develop a "hot spot"

either way u should put the core back in the loop

one of the pipes goes from the rear housing area to the drivers side firewall..

I believe there is a 2nd hose that connects to the lower neck of the radiator..

haven't worked on the FC in a long time.. can't recall now...

Did that make you feel good to disrespect the guy? You are so weak. Maybe your friends thought it was funny. But I bet he didn't. He's probably praying for you . You Moron. You should feel like **** but since your an atheist, I guess you don't. Try not to bully people in the future.
