bah ahahahahaha, air horns rock like hell man! maybe we should put in a p.a. system, thatd kick ***. i now have another horn that works we shall take apart the steering wheel and cheack the buttons to see if they are broken, if not we shall just do a fresh install of a new horn, its just to pass inspection and have fun with so, eh</P>


about the core, the hole is in the fire wall... why is it there? its a rubber nub thing and looks like a hose could have been there but it got cut, this isnt the heater hoses up top this hole is below them like a foot and drips fluid, i was thinking plug it up, i had filled the system up a little full do this mean something to that</P>


any way thanks for any help</P>


btw yes my hazards work</P>

If you have a/c, the hole is probably there to vent condensation. Plugging the hole will let the antifreeze **** into the car interior. I bought my car with a bad heater core. The owner had plumbed in gate valves to shut it off. You can probably find a piece of pipe or tubing that will fit inside the hoses. Then the heater will just be bypassed. Heater core replacement requires draining the A/C system , and pulling the dash loose. I modified my heater with an access plate. Lucky thing I did, because the new core leaked!</P>
