Install the S-shaped water tube so that the
long end is inserted into the 90° elbow on the
charge cooler. With the long end in place, ver-
ify that the open end id pointing down and
runs behind the battery. (See Figs. 13-g,
13-h.)

Cut a 50" piece of Ø3/4" hose. Connect one
end of the cut hose to the 90° molded hose
off the outlet of the water cooler using a sup-
plied barbed hose mender. Secure with ratch-
et clamps. Route the hose below the passen-
ger side head light, into the fender well and
bring it into the engine compartment from
behind the battery. (See Figs. 13-a, 13-d.)
Connect the open end of the 50" hose to the
open end of the aluminum water tube. (It may
be easier to remove the battery before rout-
ing this hose.) Secure all ends with ratchet
clamps.

Cut a 19" piece of Ø3/4" hose. Connect the
open end of the aluminum water tube near
the radiator to the straight fitting in the charge
cooler. Secure the ends with nylon ratchet
clamps.(See Fig. 13-e.)
