Random tube out of thermostat with klze?

Post by *Y* »

Hey guys,

Basically we have a tube coming out of the thermostat and going under the distributor and have no clue where it goes. Can anyone please shine some light on this?

Thanks.

So basically the best thing is to block it off? What is the best way of doing so? How did you guys do it?

you can buy diffrent sized hose nipple cover things, but if your not about looks or if its in an un noticable area, just get the right daimeter of hose, and stick a bolt in the othe end of it, with a hose clamp.
