Heater Core Delete Question
Hey guys, I am in the process of removing my heater core. The 2 lines that run from the water pump to the heater core, can I just get some hose or cut the hose I have now and route them back on each other at the water pump?
Also, is it mandatory to drain the coolant and radiator before you remove this?
Sorry for the noobie questions.
Thanks

Yes, you can simply loop the lines together at the water pump. You should drain the radiator. Even after that, you'll still lose a good bit of coolant when you disconnect the heater hoses.
