You mean the by-pass hose? I think this is the one that comes out the thermostat housing.. http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductDetail....065&PTSet=A Not sure if thats the one you are talking about but thought I would give it a try. -Mike Edited June 6, 2007 by MadManMike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadowManR6 Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 well finally got the hose replaced last night, no leak (w00t). But after the truck overheated and started spewing the coolant it started getting a slight chug, now after ive replaced the hose i get a very constant chug, especially with the acceleration of the vehicle which actually causes it to accelerate extremly slowly as well as the loud chugging/vibration it causes, from what i can tell it seems to be coming partially from the muffle but possibly something else is chugging inside the vehicle as well. if i sit idle or accelerate very very slightly and slowly the slight chug is still present but doesn't seem to be quite as heavy as when i full on accelerate.

No idea of what it means in a Pathy motor though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowManR6 Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 (edited) like a loud puffing of air, in short bursts, thub thub thub, more i accelerate faster it thubs. As if i just went through a big puddle of water and it shot up into the engine compartment and got sucked into like the airfilter possibly, but i checked my filter and what not, and no antifreeze color in it whatsoever, what else could have possibly got filled or got water into it? could have gotten on distributer and maybe messed up one the spark plugs?

Check your oil for water and your anti-freeze for oil. Might have blown a gasket when it got hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowManR6 Posted June 8, 2007 Author Share Posted June 8, 2007 when we changed out the pipe we checked the oil and wasn't discolored (was told it would be like a milky white if it got mixed) and from the anti freeze that we've seen it all seems to be normal.
