    Heater Core/Coolant Hoses

    Uhhhhh... Isn't this where they're (the coolant in/out hoses) supposed to connect to the core? Where are the pipes for this thing? Trying to get some heat up in here. Thanks!

    Hose from the back of the head goes to the bottom pipe you have circled. Hose from the thermostat housing rear outlet goes to the top pipe.

    You should check the heater valve and core when (or before) you hook it uo for leaks, etc - it was probobly bypassed for a reason.

      Awesome! Thanks!

      I figured the core went bad and started leaking on the previous owner. Got a new one ready to go. ;-)

      Didn't think about the valve though...

        I have an extra valve if you need one, depending on which 1 of the 2 styles you have.

          Valve usually goes first from what I've seen.
