Chevrolet corsica
3.1 V6
Low coolant light
Repairs- Added coolant
tech = j/k
question = my car is over heating i found it was leaking right next to
the firewall more towards the passenger side, i'm wondering if its the
heating core and if its a fairly easy do it yourself job. thanks i hope
you can help!
JK:
Yes, very possible the heater core, or the hoses at the firewall going into
the heater core. From under the car you can look in the evaporator drain
to see if coolant going out of there. Tat would indicate a leaking core.
Also coolant on the passenger side carpet. Best way is to check is to get
it pressure tested.
Heater core on this car is a little difficult to remove. Working on your back,
going from side to side under dash. Rt., left, center under dash panels,
duct work, need to be removed to gain access to the core.
