 |
|
hey y’all! i’ve had quite the busy day installing a motor, and i have some questions;
it’s a 2.1 (well 2.3) going into an ‘84, and im having some issue making the coolant pipes come together without any kinks, any suggestions?
the wiring harness that i have has a loose wire and i don’t know where it goes?
also there is a hose coming off of a coolant pipe that i have no idea where it might go?
i took as good of pictures as i could.
thanks!

You've got various troubles. That is a 2.1 out of a Syncro. Different cooling hose/pipe setup. Plus you are missing some needed cooling parts. You really would be better off with a 2wd 2.1 cooling hose setup. Maybe you have a friend with a 2wd 2.1 van who can bring it by for you to look closely at?
Good luck!
