Re: Anti-freeze leak in interior

["Dean W. Cains" <dwc@xxxxxx>]

Hi Al:

3 possibilities:  Heater hose(s), heater valve, heater core.  Either of the 
first 2 aren't bad repair jobs, but the third involves a lot of standing on 
your head.  Take a closer look and see if you can locate the source of the 
leak.  The heater valve is on the driver's side, there is one hose on 
either side, and of course, the core is in the middle.  Sometimes it's just 
the gasket on the heater valve that leaks.
