To change out the heater-core in a 1986 F-150, you must access the old heater-core through the glove box. You must remove the glove box by removing the screws that hold it in. Once this is accomplished, you must loosen the clamps on the hoses that are connected to the old heater-core unit. Then remove the hoses from the old heater-core and slide the old heater-core out through the opening where the glove box use to be. Install the new one using these instructions in reverse! Presto...installed! Mechanic Man

How do you change the heater core in a 1986 Pontiac Parisienne?

to changing the Heater CoreBasically you pop the hood and to the very back left corner, you will see two hoses going into a box looking thing against the firewall. You will see numerous bolts and screws. You must tear that apart to get to the heater core. First step is unclamping the two hoses. Once you've done that and gotten to the heater core its just like changing a radiator except smaller. You have to undo from the supports and hoses etc.... Somewhat simple, however lengthy and tedious. (May get really frustrating!)

How do you change heater core on 2001 ZX2?

If you have not done this before, it is a very time consuming job. Replacing the heater core is not the problem. Getting to it is. Unless you are willing to start removing panels and know how to remove them without damaging the plastic panels and clips, I suggest you take it to a professional. It is just a matter of removing enough to actually get to the core. Once you get to the heater core, first drain the radiator enough to get the level below the heater hoses. Remove the heater hoses, and then remove and replace the core.
