Hi Everyone. I've been looking through as many of the posts I can on how to flush a heater core. The only thing is that I'm still a bit confused and need to ask a few silly questions (it gets pretty cold in winter where I live).
Firstly, I originally thought that the pipe that goes into the firewall at the top at the left hand side was the input for the heater core as it has some black foam lagging on it, but apparently it's not? If this is not a heater hose, then...?
Secondly I now gather that the input and output hoses to the heater core are side by side or one under the other on the drivers side partway down the firewall in a slightly awkward place and seem to have other smaller hoses connected to them to make things more complicated?
If this is the case, I need to pull these off to attach some tubing in order to do the flush, and could someone kindly tell me please which is the input hose and which is the output hose as I understand it needs to be reverse flushed?
Many thanks.
