#125691 The P32 was D16a6 right?
The obd0 a6 must have had that coolant line coming off of the water pipe or near the thermostat housing where the obd1 d15b7 has it built into the intake manifold.
So you can T into another coolant line, or run w/o it but that may cause your engine to run differently. That coolant line is prob for the IACV and FITV.

It may not cause a CEL, but could effect how your engine runs and how effecient it is.

If you run w/o it, be sure to cap whatever that line went to.
