Well, I goofed up. I changed my heater control valve on my 97 2.3 and didnt take a "before" photo. Now I have a cold motor that won't warm up (temp gauge rises with RPMs) and inconsistent interior heat. I moved the hoses around, but I'm not sure if it's a hose location I goofed up or if there's an air pocket at the thermostat I have to work out. Could somebody post a pic (or diagram) of the hose routing, and is there an air bleed for the 2.3s? Thanks.

there is a picture somewhere on the site. I believe it's in a post in this category.
