I cant believe I screwed on that reply...this is what I MEANT to say... the big hose goes from the water pump to the top and the little hose goes from the bottom to the intake.....It would only make sense for the bigger hose to come from the "Supply" (water pump) and the little hose to be connected to the return. Supply being bigger than return ensures the heater core stays full. So dale, now that I've totally confused you, which one are you going to swap?
