Coolant hoses to plenum? - Land Rovers Only

Kevin88RRC · 07-10-2006, 08:03 AM

Just want to double check that I put them on in the right order. My notes and photos were not completely helpful. So there are two hose attached to the plenum. Does the small one from the intake manifold go to the left and the one from the radiator go to the right?????? Or do I have them backwards?

Here's a pic just in case of where they attach to the plenum.

Does not matter, the coolant flow just warms the air going into the intake

Thanks!
You are probably right that is does not matter, but I just talked with Rovers North who said I had them backwards. The little one to the intake should be on the right if looking at the plenum from the front of the Rover.
Thanks again.

Here's a question. Can you just remove that entire hose completely, block of the connection on the raditor and intake port?

If it just warms the air, removing it might have a performance gain?

Just curious, but I think there might be a negative effect if one were to leave that hose off.
