I was wondering if it would be ok to remove some water lines and just cap them.

Right at the thermastat there are a view hoses that are there.

1 Oil cooler hose
2 IAC hose that goes to the IAC, TB, intake
3 Heater core hose
4 Hose that goes to the upper rad hose.

Now if 3 and 4 where capped off would it create some damage or should it be ok. Im not thinking it will but I would like your guys thoughts.

THanks

 

There is no good reason to delete the oil cooler, heater core or bypass hose.

 

Not the cooler. Just the core and bypass.

 

The bypass hose needs to stay.

 

ok.. So i have some more questions on deleting and moving the coolant lines.

On the water pump housing, I plan on keeping the oil cooler line where it is, moving the heater hose line up to where the by pass hose goes and deleting the hose to the intake as my intake no longer has it and deleting where the heater hose normally goes.

I will not be running a heater valve as I dont need or use it. So the heater hose would act as a bypass and provide the heat. I have been running with no heat and just the bypass hose for a while now and it hasnt failed on me yet.

Any opinions.

Why are you messing with the hoses?
