Heater Question

Post by AustinTom »

When I bought my truck, it had the heater passages blocked off at the engine and the 2 heater hoses hanging down from the firewall. Now that it is starting to get cool again how do I reconnect the heater so it will work?

Why were they disconnected? Core bad?

1st hose is off the pump to the selector to the heater core. Next hose is off the heater core to the intake.
