I've recently had some health problems and I think that they may be related to my Shlomos leaking heater core.

How straight forward is the replacement of such a part? I assume that it will be fairly easy, but very detail oriented with all of the little bits and pieces, but are there any tips or information any of youall can pass on?

Will my cracked dash crumble to bits in the process? It seems fairly brittle.

It is concerning to think the car I adore has been slowly killing me, ya'll! I don't guess I thought of it as a 'must fix now' kind of problem, but if you do have smelly vents-- don't wait to fix it!
