Hi everybody.
I have a Ford Escort 94 and the heater blew up. I already bypassed the heater to stop the leaking of the antifreeze. I am trying now to replace the heater core but I have a question. in order to remove the entire heating unit (the one that has the heater core attached to it) do I have to strip the entire dashboard?.
I removed the instrument panel (where the stereo and the heater controls are), and I can see the heating unit, the only problem is that there are 3 nuts I have to unscrew, but I got only one (the one near the gas pedal) and the other 2 are on the top of the unit I believe. I do not have access to those nuts and I cannot find a way to remove them.
Any suggestions?, tips?. I do not have the money right now to pay the mechanic (500 dlls!!) and the winter is coming... please help!.
Thanks in advance.
