Default throttle body bypass question???

Hey guys, I was gonna do the bypass today but I read about one of the other guys probs and I just wanna make sure I do it right. Is it just the two hoses under the tb? Just hook thoes two up?? And will I need something to make the connection with? Someone said you can just stick them togather......is that true? Also whats the hose on top that goes into the passanger side of the heads do?

Yep it's the two hoses that are connected to the bottom of the TB. You'll need a 1/4" hose coupling and two very small hose clamps to do this. You'll also need two 1/4" caps to put over the nipples on the TB where you pulled off the coolant hoses, the caps will keep junk from getting in the nipples. You should be able to find the stuff you need at any auto parts store for about $5.

Yeah. The two BOTTOM hoses. You can do it without the coupling, just pull one of the metal tubes out and use it as the coupling. Don't be like me and pump the engine full of antifreeze!
