I had a Lincoln dealer replace the heater core on my 87 Town Car. Sometimes I think I get a slight smell of antifreeze. If there was a sizeable heater core leak before the repair, could there be some lingering odor still there? Could some of the old antifreeze still be in the heater core area causing the smell?
Do you think the new heater core or hose connections might have a slight leak? Its covered by their 12 mo warranty. The windows don't fog up when i run the heater or defroster after the repair.
Since the heater core cant visually be checked for leak without sliding back the dash, how do u tell it has a slight leak? What about using a humidistat to measure moisture in the air?
