rad hoses route coolant to the engine to maintain operating temperature (to keep engine from overheating).

Where should an inline block heater be tied into on a 2000 Jetta TDI?
In general, an in-line block heater heats the coolant fluid and circulates this fluid through the heater core, discharging into the block. (it has nothing to do with the large diameter radiator hose and thermostat assembly).... So the in-line heater needs to be installed on the return line from the heater core to the block ... I suppose it might work if installed on the other line .... either way, it will be important to keep your circulating line from the block to the heater core and back to the block fully open... when I had one of these on my 70s GM truck I just made sure that the mechanically controlled temperature lever was adjusted to the warmest setting with the valve wide open..... to be honest I don't know how this would work on my newer truck now when all of the controls are electronically controlled.....
