Hi:

I'm looking for the 14056-53F10 water hose, which goes from behind the throttle to behind the thermostat.

Anyone knows where I could get one?

Advance Auto, or some other parts store. It is kind of a U shape. I just changed mine yesterday if it is the one I am thinking about. If it is, it is called an Intake Bypass Hose or something like that. It is a ***** to get to..If you have large hands (like me) don't attempt it without a female, or someone with small hands to put the lower part on. Or just remove the Intake Mani, which I didn't feel like doing, not my hands are all cut up.Hope this helps.

I don't know if that's the "bypass" hose cause I looked that one in some parts sites and the number didn't match. Pinnacle got it for sure, so I went with them.

Your right it's a damn place for a water hose (don't you wonder why there is a water channel INSIDE the throttle housing?), I took the car to the shop, so they could test the whole system...I'm tired of these mysterious leaks.

Thanks for your input.
