I put a ball valve inline on mine. Open it in the winter, close it in the summer.It gets a little cooler up here don'cha know by golly den.

That, my man it a great idea.....where can I get one? I have a Jeg's catalog, having a hard time finding it.

I...uh, just went down to the hardware store, plumbing aisle & got the biggest brass 1/4 turn ball valve that I thought would fit inside the hose...1 cut & 2 hoseclamps later...
My memory isn't the greatest, is yours the one w/ the steel braided hoses?,If so my hillBilly engineering probably will need some refinment (fittings etc.)

I did that some time ago. Get vacuum caps to plug the coolant ports on the throttle body.Don't remember the size though.
