heater bypass quick question.

im removing my HVAC system, all i need to do for the heater bypass is connect my heater hoses coming from the water pump right? both of the heater hoses are on the pass side....
will this cause any problems? will it over heat?

thanks

if your just linking the 2 heater hoses that go into the firewall then all you are doing is taking the heater core out of the loop. it will be fine. just make sure you bleed the system correctly when your done

Jesse, one hose is 5/8" and one is 3/4".. so you might get a 5/8 x 3/4 coupling[reducer] so the hoses fit right, then use a piece of each size hose from the coupling to the WP..
