Heater Hose Replacement with A/C

Q: Heater Hose Replacement with A/C

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get the heater hoses on the heatercore on a 1969 firebird? Oh yeah, it does have air conditioning……………..

A: It’s one of the added pleasures of having an air conditioned GM car…..

Heater hose connections can be accessed from under car. Take a couple of fender skirt (inner fender) bolts loose and shove a piece of 2×4 between it so you can reach up to the hose connections. Take care not to break loose the tube that goes to heater core, otherwise you might as well pull the fender to replace heater core. If you split the old hose with a razor knife it will come off much easier.
