Help I broke my car!
Ok here's the story. I was going to do the Tb bypass since I realized thats what i should have done in the first place and not replaced the bad hose.... Well the neck that comes from the block to the juction they are on(well it kind of bent) now she's leaking anti Freeze like cray there where it meets up at. I noticed it also runs over to my heater core, and then back into the water pump.... My heater core is shot as it stands now as well. This hose that juctions near the heater core hose/piper feed's my water pump correct? If it dont would I be ok untill I can find a new juction part that comes from the block to just cap all thatr stuff off. I was thinking that I could just remove the juction part (from the block) and clamp a hose onto it and run the water pump this way if need be untill I can find out where and how to get that part! (ughhhh) Always something gotta love car's! I dont blame the car as the clamp(new one at this) broke and I had to cut the new hose I put on and pull up and it craked the pipe!
There are 2 kind's of car's out there
(1) Brokne one's(like mine is now)
(2) the one's thats in the process of breaking as we speak
Any help is great as I would like to drive her untill friday so I can find the part on my day off.
Thanks

You lost me about it leading to the heater core, but sounds like there is a hole in the pipe. Take it off, rinse good & let dry. get some jb weld & plug it up. If you cain find a length of pipe w/the same thread pattern then try that also.
