I'm getting that coolant smell in cab. I'm assuming it is a heater core. I can't afford to have it fixed in the shop. I'm pretty good with tools and have changed cores before but this one must be tucked in pretty tight behind the glove box. Can you help me with info I need to replace it. I need my van for business...also I LOVE MY AEROSTAR !
