It has been said, that when the C4's were assembled the first thing down the line was the heater core then the rest of the car was built around it...... While as life goes, I guess we are going to find out.
I was unable to make it out to the lunch with the mud street guys last Friday as when I went to get ready for the day I found my heater core was pissing out coolant. Over the weekend I did a bit of research and found that this is going to be a 6 hour job to R&R. Most of the dash has to come apart. As this is a bit intimidating to me, I got the kid involved. For those that do not know my son has been a mechanic for a number of years and is quite familiar with my car. Of course time is always an issue with both of us, so this morning a decision was made to take my baby into his shop on Wednesday to replace this $40 core. I don't think he is really looking forward to it, but hey that is what family is for right?
Unfortunately, this means I won't make it to Ancaster's last cruise of the season on Tuesday............ but I should be back on the road Wednesday night.
