[QUOTE="sweet88gt, post: 6734105, member: 65374"] So i completed this awhile back and figured I would help out if I could. The directions with the kit were at best lacking. I thought I would share what I have learned. After tapping the freeze plug out I mocked up the fitting for install [IMG]http://img49.imageshack.us/img49/2027/dsc00507dm4.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img46.imageshack.us/img46/3439/dsc00510pa2.jpg[/IMG] As seen the fitting is held in by a flat retaining plate. The fitting only goes down far enough for the reating plate to slide into the groove. The plate will need to be trimmed slightly.I used a good amount of the Indian Head Gasket Sealant to insure no leaks. After thought would be to take a shop vac and suck some of the coolant out because after freeze plug is removed small amount of coolant will come out. Just enough to make a mess. Then it is time to route the line. The area behind the fuel rail and in front of the EGR tube is tight. Routing is such that it may be diffucult to reinstall blower. Tight but not impossible. [IMG]http://img379.imageshack.us/img379/369/dsc00513ik6.jpg[/IMG] This is a picture of the fitting that needs to be removed from the passenger side heater core tube. I drained the coolant from the radiator but still made a mess.It is easier than you think to work this out of the hose as the instructions state.
