Bypass Heater Hose
So I've got coolant leaking from (what it looks like) behind the firewall. I'm assuming that the heater hose that connects to the heater core is loose/damaged.
From what I've gathered in the Haynes manual, if I don't feel like getting to the heater core itself (removal of that involves going from the dash/console?) I could bypass it by connecting another heater hose,with a couple of male connectors, and the only thing I'd loose out on is no heat during winter right?
Thanks ahead of time for the response.
