Default Bypass Hose

I'm getting ready to replace all the hoses, t-stat and flush the cooling system out. I saw a bypass hose listed on a part site. A quick look under the hood and I don't see one. Does the 95 SE even have one?

It should be on the passenger side of the lower intake manifold, traveling down to the water pump. It'* a small hose a bit less than an inch diameter.

Moving to General Chat. Please use this section for mechanical problems.

95 SE won't have a bypass hose. You will have a coolant elbow. This is because you have the series II motor. Dorman makes them and they are available in the HELP section at most Autozones. For an odd reason..Advance doesn't carry them.

Thanks Bill. My bad, quick look at the car and I thought L27 for some reason.

The coolant elbow is a 90* plastic elbow. You won't miss it.
