[6pack] Firewall heater connection

[Sally or Dick Taylor]

Andrew---If...this is the double hose fitting that's in the passenger footwell, and you need to drive the car, you could bi-pass it. Connect the hose coming out of the heater shutoff valve back into the tube that goes behind the manifold.  
If this is the double hose fitting that's in the engine bay (the one with the long tube that runs behind the manifolds) it could be blanked off by putting a plug in the tube to the waterpump housing, and another at the pipe at the back end of the intake maniold.  The engine may not run as well at low speed with no (hot) water passing thru the intake, but this'll get you where you want to go. 
There are other variations to the above, but you get the idea.

Sorry to bomb the list, but for various reasons (it's a long story) I need a
heater hose connector for my TR 250 in something of a hurry - like by the
end of the day tomorrow (Tuesdat).  Nothing on eBay, Moss says it would have
to come out of CA (3 days), etc., etc.

 

Is there anyone out there who would overnight one to me? It is the
double-hose connector used on the TR250, TR6.  Thanks in advance!
