    throttle body coolant lines bypass?

    One of my throttle body coolant lines just took the piss. Since I live in Las Vegas, I'd like to bypass, and just connect the 2 ends with a straight hose. Can someone suggest the correct hose material for this effort? Thanks!

    Just cut an inch of the hose off, go to a flaps, and get a couple feet of that diameter hose and some unions and clamps. I would also recommend loosely zip tying the house to the harness bracket to support it, and keep of from chafing on things under the manifold.

      Good tip on securing the hose. I don't want to retain any of the 25 year old hose, I guess just use generic coolant hose from the parts house?
