Throttle Body Coolant Bypass

What does this do... well in hot climates this is really uneccessary and what the coolant going threw the throttle body is for is to heat up the throttle body so the throttle butterfly does not get frozen shut or cause any problems, well in hot climates this is obviously not going to happen and what in actuality happens is it heats up the throttle body and hence intake air temperatures rise (which is adverse to power gains) and so we do not want that.  What do you do, well its simple there is an inlet and outlet to the throttle body and simply all you want to do is reroute these around the throttle body.  How do you do this?  Well simply done you want to remove both hoses and just join them together.  Now how can I do this? Well it is simple but not entirely easy.

 

locate the inlet and outlet of the Throttle body, they are right on the bottom, you can trace the lines easily

pull the 2 lines, and then use a simple brass joint and join them together, now the coolant will flow around the throttle body **note there is also another line that is not a coolant line, make sure you do not route coolant into this line, when you pull the line if coolant does not come out, you got the wrong line.  The 2 coolant lines are parrallel to each other and are in the center of the throttle body** (pictures to follow soon)
