Duke,

Thanks for the info. Frankly, I wasn't sure which way the system flowed. With your explanation, it makes sense to me now. BTW, thanks for your response a couple of days ago to my coolant leak problem. It was a heater hose leak. I just couldn't see it because it was located on the bottom side of the hose.


Steve,

That's it -- the idle control valve. Thanks for your detailed explanation.
