[Shotimes] Heating Problem

Sat, 8 Nov 2003 10:33:27 -0600

Also forgot to mention that I'm missing my coolant reservoir bottle.
I've been adding antifreeze to the radiator but it seems to always be
low.  It always looks so brown and nasty as well.  I don't know if this
is all the same problem or if more is going on than I see.  Please, any
info would be appreciated.

First thing i would try is check the heater hoses that connect to your
firewall in the engine bay. These hoses tend to come loose and blow
antifreeze into the heater core assembly. Thus having antifreeze burning
on
top of the heater core.

If that doesnt help....

Your Heater Core Blew.....

Remove the dash and replace it.......about 8 hour job to replace a 20
dollar
part.

FWIW, ill never do mine again, ill get it done......your looking at like
3-600 dollars labor depending where you go.......Do yourself a favor and
get
the most expensive heater core you can find.....i had to do mine twice,
in 2
weeks....
