Can someone with an F22B1/2 please take a look at this pic and let me know if the hoses are correctly connected? The fitting on the thermostat housing has a coolant hose that I think is supposed to go to the fast idle thermo valve fitting on the bottom of the throttle body.

I had my intake manifold off and forgot to label some hoses.

Thats how I have mine

 

Thanks niedejb. That helps a lot. Now I am not so worried about flooding my intake with coolant.

 

GZERO,,, I have the same Helms for the 97 Accord and I looked at those schematics and could not figure out whare that darn hose goes. From the diagram, it looks like there is a tubing bracket that the hose from the thermo housing attaches to. The other end of the tubing bracket is attached to the fast idle thermo valve by another hose. (That hose bracket may be for CA emissions.)

Since I do not have that bracket with the tubing I must assume that the hose needs to plumbed from the thermo housing to the fast idle valve.

Take a look at you your motor. You should be able to see this very clearly. It would take a load off my mind to know that I am not going to be flooding coolant into my intake manifold.

well, it doesn't matter where you plug it, but the cicle goes from the IAC to the FITV and then i don't know where, but if you have it this way or other way around is the same
