Where does coolant go in the throttle body?
Where does coolant go in the throttle body?
The ribbing around the spacer is an actual coolant passage, and there is a mating passage on the throttle body. Coolant should be here, but NOT inside the pathway that air takes to the cylinder heads
How big is the throttle on a 1994 Mustang?
SN95/New Edge Stock Throttle Body Sizes (1994-2004 Mustang) 94-98 3.8L (V6) – 60mm 94-95 5.0L (GT) – 58 mm 94-95 5.0 L (Cobra) – 60mm
Where does the coolant go in a Mustang?
Once fully open the hot coolant flows out of the motor to the inlet near the top of the radiator. The coolant then passes through the tubes of the radiator where it gives up heat to the passing airflow. Your engine works just like a big air pump.
How does a water pump cool a Mustang engine?
In colder climates the water could freeze which could potentially crack the block. Thus anti-freeze is used to negate these effects. To summarize, a water pump pumps coolant throughout your Mustangs engine, and the job of the coolant is to cool the engine, by drawing heat away as it passes through the many chambers.

Is the coolant supposed to be in the intake manifold?
If the EGR spacer gaskets are failing, there would be a leak into the intake manifold. But if the coolant was discovered after removing the TB, then yes, it is supposed to be there. You can bypass the EGR by plumbing the two tubes into a small piece of tubing temporatily until you can replace the gaskets.
