How do you replace the heater core on a 1996 Ford Taurus?

[Edit]

Answer

This process is very lengthy, I would reccomend that you purchase a Haynes or Chilton manual for you vehicle before attempting to replace the core. Simply put, the Heater core is located behind the dash of the vehicle. The entire dash must be removed to access the door. The hoses are located in the Engine compartment and they lead to the firewall. This is not a project to be taken on by a novice (no offense) and if you do plan to do it yourself, make sure you have another vehicle to rely on. Plan on your Taurus being out of commission for at least 2 days.

Answer

  1. 1 is absolutely right!

I've done 3 now and have it down to a full day each. It's a tedious bear!
