Take the hoses off the two coolant connections on the bottom of the throttle body, and connect the hoses together using a 3/8" barbed hose connector, and a clamp on each side. Make sure you don't drip any coolant on the Opti, and bleed the air out of the system correctly when you are done.

[EDIT] Added a link

When you have done a simple thing like the TB bypass and have not drained the system, the easiest way is to let the engine get to operating temperature and then crack open each of the bleeder screws until only a solid stream of coolant comes out.

If you are doing more than that, there is a drain and refill procedure on my Tech Page.
