you can either cap them off or loop them to each other either way would be fine.

take the hose that normally goes IN to the heater core, unplug it from the core, then find the hose that exits the core and unplug that hose from the core and the engine....now take that first hose, and instead of it connecting to the core, connect it to the engine at the point where the second hose connected to the engine

hope this helps
