  1. Thager- If you purchased a new unit last year it has the new core and I don't know what core would replace it. I know Heatercraft has them for $92. They do appear to be more robust than the one I need. I hope you get a long service life from your unit and won't need to replace the core.
  2. DW- You are correct the inlet and outlet on the Fords are the same size 5/8. Some others have different sizes usually on the outlet side. The last core lasted 8 years so I'm hoping to get at least that out of the new one. I do drain it in the winter even here in TX. When I drain it I blow it out with air to get as much water out as possible.
  3. Thager-- That is for the 2 outlet model. The high output heater core is 1 3/4" longer so they may use that for the 3 outlet model. But that is just a guess on my part. I found out that Heatercraft changed the cores and suppliers for their cores in 04 and the old and new cores are not interchangeable. The new cores do look more robust but i would need to buy a whole new unit (Ski dim has the 2 holer for $110.00), since I'm in TX and don't use it all that often the $24 seemed to make more sense. Plus I would have to re-drill to install the new box style.
  4. Thanks guys. I did some more research and found out it's a heater core from a Ford Econoline Van from 79-84 with w/o AC with a standard output heater. O'reilly's has them for $23.99. One store close by has one in stock and they are open on Thanksgiving. Advanced Auto and Autozone also have or can get them. I will need to go to a hardware store and get some foam tape to line the outside of the core. Thanks again.
  5. I have a 02 SN 196 and need a new heater core for the heater. Did some research and it looks like they changed the cores in 04 so I would need and the older one. Has anyone had the same problem and found a solution? I looked on Ski Dim and they sell the whole unit (core and box) but not just the core. Thanks.
  6. What time will the webcast start each day? And thanks Stacy and Horton.
