How do I replace the heater core in a 1999 Ford e150 conversion van
Fairly difficult. They are easily replaced, but hard to get too.
Chilton's says to remove hoses from the 2 connectors inside engine compartment and remove the dash panel and lower panel. Then reach inside and pull the heater core out.

You can find a 1987 Ford E1 50 vacuum operated heater control diagram at your local Ford dealership. Most local libraries will have Ford service manuals with the diagram.
Under the hood. Not true. At least on the 1989 it was under the dash on the passenger side were the passenger's feet would be. You remove one cover and the drain pan. Remove a second cover on the left side of the box. The heater core is there. Before removing. Drain all the antifreeze from the radiator and remove the quick connect heater hoses from the heater core under the hood.

This may or may not help. I am working on 98 at the moment. I have the heater core right in front of me. Passenger side, under the dash board, behind a plastic panel that is held in place with 8 screws. I can see it but I cannot get is out. Still working on it. I have the exact 99 e150 v8 van. and I'm working on replacing my heater core now. the core is located as stated above. i had to remove several pieces of metal under the dash to get the heat core cover off. A top screw on the cover was particularly hard to remove. next, the core has two connections through the firewall to rubber heater hoses. After having taken the core out, in retrospect I suggest you just cut these connections any way you can - even cutting the heater hose line (obviously close to factory coupler end). For 2 reasons; I found it nearly impossible to back the heater core out from the firewall with the factory couplers still on the ends.. AND the two ends are of no reuse to you any how. The reason being any replacement heater core you use - a Ford part of otherwise isn't going to have the factory style clips on the two female lines that connect to the rubber heater hose lines. (one is 5/8" and the other 3/4"). You can buy a coupler kit from Ford along with their replacement heater core. Same for other OEM solutions (like from Rockauto), who will sell you a couple quick connect female couplers. Or you can use good quality hose clamps.
The alternator is weak or the belt is slipping.
