RE: [Chevelle-list] Hey Herb...
The 'pressure' water line runs from the intake to the heater box (5/8" hose) and the return line (3/4" hose) runs to the water pump. Dale McIntosh
RE: [Chevelle-list] Hey Herb...
Ron, I just remembered something... About a year and half ago, when I first got the Elky on the road, the heater hose going to the intake blew off. Coolant was coming out of that hose like I was trying to water the lawn, but none was coming out of the intake (compared to the hose). That leads me to believe what I said below (which hose is supply and which is return) is correct.

I could be wrong, but I think the hose coming out of the pump is the "supply" line to the heater core. The other hose returns it to the intake where it goes back to the radiator along with the rest of the coolant. I would assume if your cooling system is in the stock configuration with an unaltered thermostat, then yes I'd say the by-pass should be functioning. However, if you drill three holes in your thermostat, these holes will provide the by-pass function and you can remove the little hose. Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed my site Ron.

RE: [Chevelle-list] carb problem?
Try spraying some carb cleaner, or starting fluid around the base of the carb (not too much as to set it on fire). If you have an airleak under the carb, the engine will begin to race, and you need to tighten the carb, or change the gasket. If this is not your problem, check your vacuum connections.
