Heater cores leak? Must be a Chevy thing. I'm a Ford guy, didn't know it was even a thing.
Cons: heaters cores leak
They replaced the core in my 2003 Ranger when I bought it. Internet said it was a common problem, and that it was electrolysis. The soloution was to ground the heater core, which I did. Five years later it let go again.
Cons: let go again
Vehicle:
Ford Ranger
I used a new heater core from an Econoline van, put hoses on it, connected it to an above ground pool pump, draped the core over my generator muffler that heated my hot tub at a festival in winter.
Pros: heated hot tub
Vehicle:
Ford Econoline
