curious as hell about the heater core job on a later model 240(92)

Did the blower motor in the fall of 15', had to go back in March of 16' as the motor went bad, free replacement from FCP, and I had to replace the heater core this time. UGH, and yes, there was cussing, but wait there's more!

While replacing the heater core upon putting it back together I noticed I had it together wrong, so on taking it out a second time the evaporator sprung a leak. More cussing ensued!

The good out of it was that I got to clean all the plastic pieces before re-assembly so the car no longer smells old or musty inside. Took me about 2 weeks to get it all back together and I had no parts left over.

Not something I'd like to do again, but I have a whole better idea on how to do it now and it wouldn't take nearly as long, and most of all, big shout out to Art and Cleanflametrap. I could not have done it as quickly without it.

Thanks Art!

Matt
