Heater core bypass ?

[rwood126]

I've got a 89 gt and the heater core took a dump yesterday.
I'm planing on replaceing it....but don't have the time right now.

I did a search and found different threads on the subject and also different size reducers to use. Can anyone tell me what size reducer I would need ?


Thanks

Posted via Mobile DeviceJust remove the two coolant hoses from the heater core, and connect them together. Till you get the heater core replaced.

Thats my plans....I'm needing to know what size reducer to connect the 2 hoses.

you dont need a reducer, just get the bigger sized hose of the two, and run it in a U shape, the hose clamp will take up the difference in size.

Ive been running this way for years, not a single leak

You need a 5/8" to 3/4" fitting.
