Heater Core Bypass? 850 1993

I have done it since my 1997 850 heater core has been replaced by me 3x! Just pull the hoses off the firewall on the inside of the engine and clamp them to opposite ends of a suitable pipe. I forget the diameter.

BTW, the replacement on the 1997 is easy. Just make sure you blow the extra fluid out from the engine compartment side (I don't have compressor so I just used lung power thru another hose). AND make sure you have down in the foot area a sheet of plastic with towels on top to catch fluid you didn't blow out.
