1988 Ford E150 - I need detailed information about replacing the heater-core ( I have Haynes and Chilton books for it, but the details are insufficient )
Thank You

The details are going to be pretty much the same everywhere. Most of them come from the manufacturer and aren't designed with the DIYer in mind.
This is a pretty basic job on this van.

Thank You. Aside from breaking the connectors, the whole project was pretty simple, and only took about 3 hours - which included having to walk over to NAPA in search of the stupid connectors (NAPA didn't have them, so I got a couple feet of hose, and 4 hose-clamps, and 'faked it')
