Re: Coolant Bypass Hose Restrictor AWOL



OK.. having read the link I see it's more complex than a hole restricition. Sort of a one way valve with a bit of spring pressure.

Makes things more difficult, but I still think it would be worth a try at DIY reverse engineering. Perhaps there's a off the shelf gizmo that could fit in a hose..

I'll have to see if there's one on our car to examine..

Though the consensus seems to be it's not terribly important.
Hmmm.. wonder if just a plug with a hole for some back pressure might actually be somewhat more effective than nothing, while being easier to do?
