Is this a breather hose because i want to attach a little filter to it if i can

 

[crock89]

Why is there 2 hoses?

 

[ryude]

Throttle Body Coolant Circulation, it's to warm up the air for freezing environments. That or EGR, but usually EGR connects at the rear of the cylinder head.

its a 2.0L automatic, the manual only has one hose

 

[the kia guy]

ryude, so does it matter if i put a little air filter on it

 

[justinadams]

you can put the little filter on there. but you already have everything setup so i don't see why you'd want to.
and yeah. auto's have a second hose.

 

[the kia guy]

justinadams, it will be just for looks plus i already bought the filter

 

[justinadams]

ok. then you'll need to plug the open hole on the CAI

 

[ryude]

I'll do some research on it, I have the 2.0L Automatic as well.

That's a how-to on coolant by-pass, it looks like the same hose to me.

it sure does stand out. so if its all for looks, well then you are making a statement.

fortesxfan,lol well i like i, plus it is the breather for the head so there isnt a vacuum in the engine when your decelerating so it sounds a little like a blow off valve
