Default TB Cooling

I was wondering it is as easy as it seems to block off the coolant hoses to the TB. Can you just cap them off at the back of the intake, heater runners, and TB, or will this create a problem? Thanks.

it will set of the service engine light..you can put a small copper tube in between the hose or cap them off.. I pulled the water sensor left it hooked up and pull foil around it while laying it on the intake and putting a plug in that hole an ole trick

Funny thing is, my car doesn't have a check engine light. I've had the cluster out and there's no light to tell you that there's a problem. Could you explain that tube deal a little clearer?

Hey Vfast,

I blocked mine off at both ends and just put caps over the small pipes that come out of each side of the EGR plate and i haven't had a check engine light yet.

Is there something I'm missing?
