no
if engine overheated when heater core blew, u may have damaged bearings in engine, or dropped a rod, or maybe water pump went out as well
You can bypass your 1988 Buick Skylark heater core by removing the heater core water supply hoses. There will be to water hoses. Connect the water hoses to each other.
Im asking how to change the heater core. I don't have the answer.
If your heater core is LEAKING engine coolant so that your engine coolant level drops too low or the engine coolant is lost completely and causes your engine to overheat then your engine can be damaged beside the mess the leaking coolant makes inside your vehicle ( you might be able to just temporarily bypass the heater core so that no engine coolant is flowing through the heater core )
The heater CORE is a big job. Get a manual on your car to do the job correctly.
Big job!! get a manual on your car.
To remove the heater core in a 1995 Buick Skylark, you will first have to disconnect the negative battery cable. Next you need to drain and recycle the engine coolant, you will remove the rear lateral trans-axle strut mount, take off the drain tube, then disconnect the heater hoses from the core tube, and removed console if needed. Lastly you will remove the sound insulators, console extensions or steering filler if needed.
not any oil in your heater core although the heater core uses coolant coming from and returning to the engine so when damaged or being worked on coolant can leak under the dash and into the floor
Probably a worn-out or clogged heater core.
possible clogged or damaged heater core
The heater would not be working on a 1990 Dodge Grand Caravan if the heater core is damaged or blocked. Hot coolant from the engine must flow through the core to allow hot air to pass into the cabin.
Sounds like you have a loose or damaged hose to your heater or perhaps the heater radiator is damaged.
