Do the pressure test that NHDOC recommends to do. If you discover that the heater core is leaking, you will have to remove the Dash and get into the heat A/C box . It is quite an involved job.

DMORRISON has a good write up on getting in there. this is for replacing his Evaporator, but the Heater Core is close by.

Hope it is something else,

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
