Ok, so I got the dash out Last night with very little drama and once it get
late enough so I don't wake my neighbors this morning, I will start the car,
run the heat and see if I can see where the leak in the core is. I can see a
green corrosion trail on the tube above the control valve, so I assume it's
somewhere around there, but I want to run it first and see if it's not the
valve itself or something else before I go removing the heater box.
I ran into a couple of minor issues during the dash removal.
1. Both paper defroster hoses were missing. Do I have any options for
replacement here.
2. One of the little clips that holds the lamp above the washer switch was
missing. Are these available
without buying a whole new switch?
Thanks in advance,
Ian

Guys,
I have a leak in my heater core and need to get it out for repair or
replacement. I have never pulled the dash before, so I am looking for any
tips or advice before getting to work on it. I have a single pod dash and I
do have a Technical Information Manual describing the procedure. Also any
advice on removing the heater core itself would be appreciated. I do have
shutoffs in the engine bay for the hot water lines, so that should make
things a bit easier.
Thanks,
Ian
