    Heater core replacement 1989 Crown Victoria

    Coolant everywhere on the floor... I must change the heater core.

    I've got a car for pieces, wich I can destroy to take that piece apart.
    I've cut the dash in 2, removed fan motor, I've destoyed ALL the
    plastics&traps around the heater core, and I'm still unable to take that
    piece apart. There are no bolts still there! Everything have been
    unscrewed under the dash and under the hood. Still stuck there.

    What is the good method for removing/reinstalling the heater core? It must
    be an easy way to remove it without destroying all the car!?
    I've temporary bypassed my heater by removing the
    hoses

    Thanks

    Take a trip to the library and look up a Chilton's for your year car. They
    usually have a good diagram on this that shows all the bolts. You may have
    one that goes up under the cowl. On most fords without air, the core comes
    out after removing a cover. With air you have to remove the entire plenum
    and remove the clips on it to open it up and remove the core.
