Hey Folks,

I was wondering if anyone had any pics or any idea of where the heater hoses hook up to the engine on a 6V92TA Coach.  Someone basically just deleted the heater hoses all together out of mine and there are lots of plugs in the radiator as well as what I assume is the thermostat housing.  Not sure where the thermostat is on it either so figured I would see if anyone had any experience or pics.

Thanks,

Wil

I can show you a video I made of where the heater hoses connect on my Wanderlodge with the 6v92, it should be the same as yours. I would recommend doing the same thing that I mention in the video and use a heat exchanger so that your engine coolant is not having to go all the way up front. I did this on the wanderlodge for a couple reasons, the heater hoses were original on my wanderlodge and they are very difficult to get to, I did not want a hose to blow and and overheat the engine, so now with the two systems that is much less likely to happen. Also the heating loop I made an open system, so its not pressurized so that would be easier on the old heater hoses. The pressurized engine system is limited to around the engine and its easy to inspect for leaks. 

Here is the video:

Hey there.  Thanks a lot for the video!  That will be very helpful.  And now that you mention it, that's a really good idea because I really didn't like the idea of hooking those old hoses back up and have them running over all the basement bays I just got done repairing all the rust and rot in.    At least with this, they wouldn't be under pressure.  I've also toyed with the notion of just using the diesel heater that I plan to put up front and ducting that into the heater box up front somehow too in order to avoid dealing with those lines.  That being said, it would be a shame to waste all that good heat off the engine.

Thanks,

Wil
