coolant lines for 14b
 

can anyone help me out and tell me what i need for coolant lines on a 14b? i got a oil line kit but.. im assuming people just make the ones for coolant cause it isisnt as crucial and or its easier to find those fittings..

anyone got a part number, size type etc.. ? is the back of the manifold where people usually get the coolant from on d-series engines? where do you run it back to out the turbo?

Most just cap em off. You can head down to lowes and find all sorts of fun stuff if you still want to do coolant lines though

mitsubishi sells the fittings for about 10 bucks apeice. i went to a hose fitting supply store and got what i needed for like 2 dollars each. and you can get the hose from a honda or napa dealer. its the same one that runs from your firewall into either your throddle-body or engine block. run it into either coolant port in your turbo, then make the other line return to whereever you tapped off of.

Ahem...

We offer two diff types...

We are developing a low profile version of the 14mm type. Let us know what you think.

I just got some lines from NAPA and tapped them into my TB. Easiest part of the turbo install.

so u just run then coolant back to the TB? from the turbo

Re: coolant lines for 14b
 

yes. kinda like running the turbo inline with the coolant line to its destination.

thanks, ya i figured that out kinda today at work when i was thinking about it instead of paying attention to my job.



so when the coolant gets axtra hot in the turbo (id guess) then goes into the tb that dont mess nothin up? like a temp sensor n ----? what about some people get it from the firewall, im guessing going to the heater core, when you dont have your heat on wouldnt that kinda stop the flow? or does it pass through the system anyways? i thought slidding your cold/hot knob controlled the water flow through the heater core.. not sure though
