Heater Hoses

The heater hoses are 1/2 inch inside diameter hose. However, the original Nissan hoses were thin wall. Standard 1/2 inch hose is thick wall and will work but has to be forced through the firewall grommets.

Removal

Heater was optional. If you wish to remove the heater, how is it done?

Drain engine coolant
Remove heater hose from the fitting behind the cylinder head and plug this fitting
Remove heater hose from the lower radiator hose tee. Plug this fitting
Remove heater from inside car

You can either remove the fitting from the back of the head & put a plug in there, or get heater blank off rubbers & plug them both. You can get these from local Auto stores, it is 1/2" heater hose.
