I was flushing my radiator and disconnected a hose from my ranger valve i use on the ac mod.I noticed when the air is on coolant flows through it when it is off it,or the heat is on nothing flows through it,what did I do wrong?It is an early 99 and i used the white vacuum line by the passenger foot area for the vacuum line.Any help is appreciated. John

 

Not sure but I think I remember it is the red one. Il check when I get back to my truck in an hour.

 

I found my link. It should be the red line! I would post the pics butt don't know how to with my I phone

 

I can't figure out what exactly the problem is ...I'd love to help though.

 

Are you certain you have the correct valve?

I used the white line so that the valve is active only when in MAX.

But you sound like the valve is acting just the opposite of what you need it to do, and that leads me to think you don't have the correct valve.

Assuming this is the valve from Diesel-site,make sure that arrow on valve points toward water pump (forward)when installed on heater hose??
Locate white vacuum line under dash board under glove box. Remove the fitting from valve and install tee supplied.
Route new vacuum line thru dash board following path of old black line. Once in the engine area connect the line to the new control valve.
Like Pop's, it is only active in MAX.
I can scan and send if I have address???

 

Yes, white is only Max, but red is all air operations and outside cool air too. Thats what I read on Robins post with a ford deversion valve and part number, I can't seem to find right now. Good luck, Chet

 

thanks fo rthe replies,apologize for not getting back sooner work relocated me 125 miles away and the hurricane is stil causing headaches,anyway,I took some pics to show what i did hope they help,and the part I got the number from a link here at autozone,i believe it was 75409,its written down and I left it back home,if the pics need explaining just let me know,thanks to all

 

previous pics were how i did the vacuum line,t'd into the white line,i took pics of the lines behind the plastic at your feet and behind glove box to see if someone would be able to identify a different line to use,the next pics are how i put in the valve

 

I can't really see what you did in the pics.

Use this LINK as a guide and re-check your work.

Tee into the white or red depending on when you want the valve to divert the coolant.
