Take the heater hoses loose from the engine (while cold). Take them off the core at the firewall.

Loop one of the hoses so that both engine fittings are covered. Hose clamp and you're on your way.

Good luck with your purchase.

 

hmm ok, dont realy understand, how you mean... (cant picture it)

 

He means remove the two hoses from the heater core completely. Then use one hose to go from one engine side to the other. Creates a closed loop.

 

ok,

so just remove the hoses from the firewall and create a loop?

is it possible to just connect the two hoses to each other?

 

Good lord........


Yes, do exactly that.



Why people complicate **** is beyond me...............

 

Yeah, but you'll have to buy an adapter fitting. The hoses probably aren't the same diameter.

You'll see what I'm talking about in the earlier post once your open the hood on the Jeep and look in there.

I hope you have the money to pay a good mechanic to work on it after you buy it. I guess everyone has to start somewhere, but I don't think a 19 year old TD is good for a novice that appears to be very confused after the simplest, plainest instruction.

 

iknow i need an adapter. and i will also be able to change the heat core myself.
im sorry i don't realy understand your first post, but english is not my first language.. "Jag ber om ursäkt".....

 

No worries, didn't see the location was Sweden!

 

Where?

I've been to Malmo.
