S-10 coolant leak

======================== Heater core......

Oh yes - classic heater core leak. Chevy used to give some $ for aggravation ("customer satisfaction" credit).

I'll repost what DonW posted in another S10 coolant thread.

This is a good article. It states to remove the computer. I did not have to remove it or slide it aside. I had plenty of room. Don;'t let it scare you, it wasn't that hard. The area was tight on top but if you take the time and be careful, it can easily be done.

I did my 92 S10 in about 1 hour which included time to talk to the neighbor for a bit.

Thanks to all for the help, the article will be very useful when I start on the job tomorrow.

Thanks again,

disassemble

Let us know how many screws you have left over after taking apart the dash....Usually have at least a couple everytime I do a heater core lol

PS Tried to do one on a 90ish Mustang a few months back...Finally gave up and put it all back together...never even got closer to the damn thing

Screws hell! I've got a box full of dash trim and a couple of stray wires from the last heater core I did...

It was getting to that point where I either quit or put a hammer through it...(still heats great though...)

Actually there is very little to take out. It was quite easy. Taking out the radio and glove box was the hardest part.

Well, this will come in handy. Mine started leaking about two months ago. I just loosened the radiator to help keep it from leaking alot. Now, I just need to wait till I have the time.
