Need to know... December 17, 2010, 07:50:06 PM .....If anybody knows where I can buy a new coolant pipe - the one that the heater core bypass hose connects to under the throttle body. Would rather have a new part if I can find it, but I can't seem to find one anywhere. Quote Selected

Need to know... Reply #7 – December 17, 2010, 10:29:29 PM I have a good used one for you. Do you need any of the heater hoses, throttle body hoses or the temp sensor? I can do $30 shipped with the temp sensor, heater core hoses and throttle body hoses. Let me know. Thanks! Quote Selected
Need to know... Reply #8 – December 19, 2010, 02:22:55 PM Anybody have any pointers on how to remove the coolant tubes? I have already pulled the upper intake completely off, (I know, I probably didn't need to, but while the car is out of commission I figured I could do some cleaning and painting) I removed all of the heater hoses that were connected, loosened the bolt that holds the welded bracket down, and moved some wiring and hoses out of the way. I can't figure out how to get the lower tube out, where it has that big nut on the frontside of the tube. Any ideas? Quote Selected

Need to know... Reply #11 – December 19, 2010, 03:45:15 PM That's what I figured, but it just wouldn't budge. Not going to worry about it now, found the real problem. Coolant tubes are O.K, bypass hose is good. The small hose coming off of the TB is the one that is leaking, which explains a lot, as the pinhole is right there at elevation with the heater bypass hose. Quote Selected

Need to know... Reply #13 – December 19, 2010, 03:59:03 PM Oh, it only takes about 10 minutes to get off..... It's getting all the stuff back on that takes some time. And buying new gaskets, that sucks too. Quote Selected
