If your heater core is actually blocked by crud on the ends of the tubes, you may need to increase the pressure more than you show on this video. and sometimes a blast of high pressure air into the flowing flushing water will causes bubbles to agitate the water which will also disturb/loosen/remove that crud. Beats removing and replacing the heater core.

Hey Chris, I have a coolant flushing system at work that pushes new coolant in, while old coolant is forced out. Will this flush the entire system? Can the new coolant get to the heater core without the heat turned on? I'm starting to wonder if i should do the normal flush through the rad and eng, then do the heater core flush you do in the video.

If I turn it to heat and still get cold, wouldn't that eliminate a blockage issue? Seems I would have little air flow when air can't go through core. A scope was used my a mechanic and said he saw rust in core. Is there a chemical flush I could use? Or would this cause heater core leak? Trying to eliminate blendor.

My mechanic told me that my jeep has a clogged heater core and needed to be replaced. I said can you flush it? He said thats usually a waste of money and doesnt fix it. Im going to try your video and hope it works

About to try this out my heater is a little hot but no where near where it need to be. Excited to feel that hot air especially with these winter months coming.

I get plenty of heat. No leaks, but it sounds like water in the dash and I have been told that I need to burp and flush the heater core. What do you think

My Lincoln Navigator has two cores, one in front and one in the back. Would the back one have separate in and out lines from the front one?
