Ok so I spent the better part of yesterday evening just trying to figure out how the coolant flow works though the ecotec and ended up more confused than I was before. I thought most thermostats were on the hot side controlling flow out of the engine??
This is probably wrong but....My current understanding is the drivers side radiator hose is the cool side, from the radiator to the thermostat, which controls flow into the engine. Then the coolant flows through the engine and out the top passenger side hose into the top of the radiator.
I couldn't find and diagrams online or in my Haynes manual. Hoping the service manual has something?
I want to plumb my turbo soon and don't know which way is correct anymore.
