so winter is here and my car has a clogged heater core. Hot air

Look online and figure out which is the inlet and outlet for the heater core from the engine bay side of the fire wall.
Drain the coolant.
Disconnect the hoses.
Shove a 3/4"hose adapter for a hose into the outlet hose.
Slowly, SLOWLY, run water backwards through the core until it's clean.

This works as long as there isn't a leak in the core.

Don't be a pussy, take that dash apart and replace the core.

the problem is the inlet and outlet hoses for my cars heater core are made out of brittle plastic and they love to break when theyre handled

so buy some new hoses and replace those too you stupid fuck

i meant the plastic part, that cant be replaced without replacing the whole heater core and replacing the heater core costs more than buying a new car

Leave the hoses on the heater core, disconnect them at the engine. Problem solved.

I'm sure he'll have some bullshit reason not to try

>possibility 1: Do nothing and continue having no heat
>possibility 2: Try to flush it, damage heater core and be forced to bypass it. Have no more or less heat than you have now
>possibility 3: a christmas miracle you successfully flush the core and have heat

Buy some heated seat covers and a lap blanket

Where's the album? Someone sauce me up

If you're cheap just drive the car with no heat. I did it for two winters. If you live in a cold climate you should already have a down filled coat. Just wear gloves when you drive and you'll be fine. get hot hands warm packs for when you drive if you're that fussy. Only thing you'll run into is if it's so cold that frost forms on the INSIDE of your windshield, in which case just carry some form of alcohol in your car (deicer) with paper towels and it's no big deal.

I've used CLR, filled the heater core with it and let it sit over night then flushed with a garden hose.
