I'm just completing a timing belt job and in the process of reinstalling the lock carrier and radiator this rubber grommet fell out. I believe from the passenger side of the car. I have been searching but can't find a home for this little puppy. Does anyone recognize this grommet and where it's home is?

 

Ah, behold! It's the grommet the radiator retaining pin plugs into. Thanks anyway.

 

haha good job, isn't itmore rewarding figuring it out yourself than having tohave me tell you?

 

You are absolutely correct! However, since you responded I have another "stupid" question. Where the hell is the heater hose with the bleeder hole in it. I've pulled the expansion tank and looked around under there. Nothing resembles any hoses going to the heater. I haven't looked in the trunk. Maybe I should look there.
