I have a leak. Its costing me coolant. Heater works fine. I figure its best to buy all new replacement parts if I am going to replace the core. Any of you experts want to give an amateur like me advice feel free to step in and tell me. I am all ears.
Just filled out the order form from LMC Truck and ordered the following:
Heater core- 1 each $39.95
Heater Blower motor- 1 each $26.95
Seal Kit without A/C-1 each 24.95
You will find these parts listed on page 121 of the LMC Truck winter catalog.
I took a long read in the shop manual I bought from from e-bay. It tells me the following(Source:1968 Chevrolet truck Chassis Service manual Series 10-60 ST 133-68,Copyright 1967 General Motors Corporation.):
1. Disconnect battery Ground cable.
2. Support the right front of the hood in the fully raised position.
3. Carefully scribe the hood and fender locations of the right hood hinge and remove the hinge.
4. Unclip the blower wire at the blower flange terminal and note or mark the motor flange flange position in relation to the blower case.
5. Remove the blower assembly mounting screws.
6.. Remove the blower assembly (pry away the flange from the case carefully if the sealer acts as an adhesive.)
7. Remove the nut attaching the blower wheel to the motor shaft and seperate the assembly.
So- My question is- what is the reason to Carefully scribe the hood and fender locations of the right hood hinge and remove the hinge.? Is there a way to mess that up?
Secondly- did I order all of the parts i will be needing? Did i miss any?
I will post pics as I go.
Thanks in advance.
