To do this you need to remove the two hoses that go into the firewall (to the heater core) and figure out a way to join them-using a pipe and clamps is the most common method.

I'm getting coolant in the aircooler.

Not good -
You may have a leak in the heater core.
These require hard work to pull out centre console to replace in vehicles. Coolant flows into heater core inside car and heats the car from the heat of the coolant. You may be able to temporarily bypass the heater core in the engine bay until you can get it fixed with some coolant hose. Depends on car fittings to heater core.

Can i by pass the heater core

i`m guessing that you are talking about the heater core blew and you have coolant on the inside of your car.you can bypass the heater core by disconnecting the hoses that connect to the heater core and connecting a hose connector between the two hoses and your done.however if you need heat you won`t have it until the heater core is replaced.

Waterleaking passenger floor all wet!!! where is the heater coil and can i by pass it

call any auto parts store to find exact location of heater core. yes you can bypass it, but you will have no heat inside of car, it needs to be replaced. to bypass just hook hoses from core together, without going through heater core.

Why does heater smell sweet

Hi yu heater smelling sweet is not a good thing. There is an engine coolant leak probably in the heater core and the smell your noticing is aspirated ainti-freeze. Check your engine coolant. It should be slowly lowering. The only fix is to have the heater core replaced. You can for the moment bypass the heater core by looing the hoses together with a nipple on the engine side of the firewall but you will have no heat or heated defrosting abilities until you replace the heater core.

Thanks for choosing FixYa.

[email protected]. I bypassed my heater core till I'm able to get a new one but something is still leakin inside the van on both sides in front. Any ideas what to do or look for?

If you by-pass heater core, there's is no more coolant going into the dash (heater core), could just be left over coolant in a/c-heater housing, when it was leaking.There's nothing else under the dash the used cooling to work, but heater core, and that's by-pass.

When you bypass the heater core the path for the water to go through the core is gone. Correct?, you have connected to engine water line out to the engine water input? thus bypassing the heater core........

No, you just won't have water flow through the heater core, Coolant flows through the engine through the lower radiator hose as the water pump sucks it out of the radiator and pushes it through the engine. It then flows out the top radiator hose when the thermostat opens. It then flows into the radiator to cool off.

Is your heater core leaking?
