Asked by jsmcmullen Dec 22, 2011 at 08:43 PM about the 1999 Ford Expedition 4 Dr Eddie Bauer SUV

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Plan on back flushing heater core. Would heater core clog prevent it from cycling. The heater does not blow hot air. I smell no antifreeze and there is non leaking of antifreeze on floorboard. Any thoughts?
