corsa c20xe coolant pipes

[run_pug]

As some people may have seen i have been fitting a new redtop engine to my corsa, the new engine is in and all connected up.

Now the issue, i seem to have a coolant pipe that goes nowhere, so i think i have done something wrong, it comes from the icv and then a cant see where it goes

Anyone know where it goes? or have i put something else in its place

Cheers George

what water bottle are you using as you have to have the bottle to except two water return pipes if you only have the single return on your water bottle this will be why you have a spare pipe

A doubt it's the wrong water bottle, had same one on my last engine, which is the same as engine I put in. It ran fine before and was connected somewhere before.

Is the pipe that comes of the icv a vacuum?

[vectra640]

yes it is

one pipe from the heater matrix goes to the plastic pipe and the other goes on the head outlet, the other plastic pipe connection goes to your expansion tank outlet, the ICV connection is on the inside of the inlet manifold and should not be connected to any water connection

Right I have everything else connected right, just need to find this bit on the inside of the inlet. Got my old head so I will look on that when I get home
