Which hoses carry coolant - 7A-FE

[PatrickGSR94]

I'm planning on doing a complete overhaul to the cooling system on our 96 Corolla 7A-FE 4-speed auto this weekend. I have a new radiator, and new heater hoses (engine to valve, valve to heater, and heater to engine). The upper and lower rad hoses are only a couple of years old so I'm reusing those.

I know there's a coolant hose from the engine to the throttle body (bypass hose). Are there any other hoses on the engine that carry coolant? There's a bunch of crap built up inside the old radiator and I'm concerned the old hoses may have some of that stuff in them (hence why I'm replacing the heater hoses). If the bypass hose is the only other coolant hose I may just go ahead and replace that too.

Are there any other coolant hoses I'm missing?

If you have a good flashlight, you could follow any hoses that lead from the coolant reservoir and radiator to see where they go. There is a hose for the heater core.

They're all pretty obvious except the one on the back of the engine.

Yes, I know I could look for them, but I was thinking some may not be visible from above, and I was trying to determine if I should replace all the hoses now and get them before I start working on the car Saturday.

I don't really have time to raise the car up and look underneath there before Saturday, which is why I was asking on here. If you only have smart@$$ remarks to post instead of helpful answers then please just don't post at all.

We're trying to help you. Get a manual before Sat if you can. There would be diagrams of where all the hoses from the radiator, etc go. Barring that, fix what you can, and SELL IT, as soon as you can, and let the next owner worry about any hoses that may need attention.

Sell it? Because of a few coolant hoses?? lol... I do have a Haynes manual. I see the diagram showing radiator and heater hoses, and the throttle body bypass hose. I have all of those new, so I guess I'll just see if there are any others.

Well I thought that might help, but I don't see any diagrams, which is what I really need. It says they had to remove the diagrams because of Toyota Motor Co. harassing their ISP about it.
