Post by Wc-51OHA »

What is the correct routing of the heater hoses for a WC-54?

G,day Mate . Not sure .But my wc54 has a outlet on top of the radiator bypass {above the water pump} . And an outlet on top of the head /left rear . I would have assumed that the 2 hoses for the heater go from these 2 outlets to the holes in the fire wall, and then to the heater element . WWP has a good reference book on ambo,s . Hope this helps.
