OK i have a very easy problem to fix. Don't laugh because i cant find it in the FAQs. or in the damn worthless Haynes book. I cant find it there because they made the book go from 95-01. Which doesn't make any sense. But thats a whole other topic. I installed a 1g throttle body on my 97 gst. I did this when i was replacing my head gasket so i forgot which of the coolent lines to the throttle body goes to which inlet or outlet on the TB. All i need to know is which line goes to which hole. very simple.


right now i think i have it hooked up wrong because there is not much pressure in the lines. but before i had it hook up the other way and one line burst, fixed that, then the other one went, fixed that then switched them and now not much pressure. (the lines were old). But now my intake temps are pretty high.

I know this is kinda vague but its tough to explain. right now the lines are running parallel or should they be crossing eachother.

please help.

the bottom [pointing down] hole of the throttle body has the shorter hose that connects to the water pipe.

the top one [points towards front of car] goes to the [I wanna say t-stat housing?] with the longer hose.
