The tap is usually fitted to the water pump. cheers RET Title: Re: heater hoses Post by: Phantom on May 26, 2007, 05:54:47 AM I didnt explain myself i suppose , what heater hose do i put the tap ? i have two outlets from the water pump a top one and a bottom one , which hose do i put the tap on or doest it matter?

On a new water pump it is usually blocked and you have to drill through to make it operational. There are 2 outlets just above this in the thermostat housing which are for the manifold heater - are you getting confused with these two?
