TB Bypass Mod
Hello,
I am bypassing the coolant flow through my throttle body and I'm wondering what most people do with the water hose connections on the water pump and on the rear housing. Do you just block them off or do you connect them together. I think I'm going to just block them off unless I hear otherwise....
Thanks,
Brian

You can do either. Personally if I eliminated the TB coolant I would just cap them. No sense in having another hose that could leak if you can be rid of it completely.

Garfinkle plugs the holes with pipe plugs. If some one wants to go back .threaded nipples can be put in. So far no one has gone back. He pulls out the metal tubes , drills and taps the holes.

If you are talking about the TB inlet and outlet coolant pipes, I didn't cap or join them together...they are just hanging out in the open and doing fine.

duboisr,
This would be the preferred method except that I didn't have the engine disassembled and this would have introduced metal shavings into the water jacket.
