BAC Coolant Line

Can I remove the coolant line from my BAC valve and reroute it? As I understand, it is only used for cold weather situations.

The vacuum line is only kinda attached to the BAC, it doesnt actually flow through it or anything, so you wwont hurt anything re-routing it.

He Is talking about the Coolant line not the Vacuum line. And no they are both used In conjunction with the BAC Valve.

Yes you are right, the COOLANT LINE Is used for weather conditions i.e If you have frozen Intake or BAC Valve. Re-routing the hose at the rear housing or blocking It off altogether will have no adverse effects providing you don't live In sub zero climate. Besides warm up your car and all Is well. You do warm up your car, don't you?

Sorry, I meant coolant line not vacuum line. Wasnt thinin just typin Anyway yea I understand that that line is used to help warm up and/or unstick the BAC valve, but judging from the way he was talking he didnt care about that, just wanted too know if he could re-route it.
