I've been having problems with the heater core on my 1999 4wd Chevy Blazer. Just about everyone I've talked to has mentioned removing the entire dash. I've also heard about a temporary fix that requires looping the hoses to the heater core, which bypasses the heater core all together. What is the easieset way to loop the hoses? I don't have the funds right now to replace the heater core, and I'd rather not have to remove the entire dash to loop the hoses if at all possible.

Look under the hood where the hoses go into the firewall. There should be clamps on the hoses. Remove these clamps and the hoses. Place a connector in the 2 hoses that will not crimp and block the flow of coolant. And you have bypassed the heater core. You might need to repair the heater core before long. If you are in a cooler climate, the weather is gonna change soon.
Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds
