Its as simple as getting a flush connector from the parts store and looping the heater hoses using the connector as a bridge. this will buy you time to get the core replaced If you're going to do that much work, just replace the heater core.

If you're hesitating because heater cores are "always" deep inside the dash, and take huge effort to get to - fear not!

The heater core on the Windstars are really easy to get to and replace!
