Earlier engines use a fitting to secure the heater hose to the front engine cover, 3.2 and 2.8 liter engines do not have this fitting. There is no way to affix a coolant hose to these engines in stock form without getting creative. This is also needed if you are doing a S52/M52 engine swap conversion using OBD-I electronics.

Step for installation:

• Apply two-part epoxy (Included) and insert the TMS Coolant Hose Adapter
• Tap into place with hammer to assure a watertight seal
• Clean off any excess epoxy. Once installed, the fitting appears to be a factory part
