Looking for someone to assist me in replacing my heater core. I will provide all the tools, supplies and parts. I'll also provide all meals and beverages. I can even come to you. I just need someone there for moral support.

Backstory:
I"ve had the heep for 2 years and it has never had heat. Troubleshooting the issue has lead me to replace the thermo; flush and back flush the cooling system. I've also remedied a head gasket issue with Blue Devil (google it). Its either got to be a vacuum leak or the heater core.

I'm going to replace the heater core (~65.00) but I don't feel comfortable doing it solo. It involves pulling the dash and should be a good days worth of labor.

I am sure that we can get it apart, but going back is going to be the problem.

Rob, thanks for the offer, but, I'll be heading out of town this weekend. I'm in no really hurry for this fix; just sometime before the cold weather sets in.

I'll post back up when I know I'm free.

Any time that I can help just let me know. I was just joking about not getting it back together. We should use all of the bolts and might just throw some extras in for good measure. Rob

I will have to check my scedule, but I think I might have an open bay in the shop.
