1995 f150, 5.0. I need to know/see how to bypass the throttle body's coolant line

I JUST JOINED THIS OUTSTANDING FORUM AND NEED HELP. I HAVE A 1995 F150, 8 CYL. 5.0. EFI, EDDIE BAUER, AND THE THROTTLE BODY'S COOLANT LINE/HOSE BROKE AS WELL AS THE "NIPPLE" THAT COMES ATTACHED TO THE THROTTLE. MY FRIEND TOLD ME THAT IS OK TO BYPASS IT BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW AND I'M NOT SURE IF I SHOULD DO IT.

you really don't have to have the line unless you are in a really cold climate. its to keep the throttle body from freezing up and throttle sticking in the winter time. to bypass just hook your lines together with a splice or get one long hose and loop it
