bypassed the heater core (1 Viewer)

[snaps]

Hello! Yea I chickened out on this miserable job for now. Its leaking pretty bad. what Im wondering, should I flush it out with a garden hose to get all the coolant out of the core so it doesnt end up on the carpet, or does the leak make that a bad idea? Thanks

Whatever you put in there is going to end up on your floor, why not blow it out with compressed air?

Don't use too much pressure. Put a small diameter fitting on shop vac and use that in reverse to blow it out.
