Jason,

I had a F&F on my 1.9. Also had a couple problems with it. It was installed on the heater line about a foot toward the front of the vehicle from the right head. Had a rock fly up and break the cap on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere. Also, the main through tube warped from the hot coolant coming off the head. No longer round, but had a dip in it which allowed coolant to escape. Finally took it out just last month.
