Reply to "Heater tube replacement (Success)"

tomsealbeachMember

I've pushed this project off for a while but am now enthused because this is a great solution....my tubes stub out of the firewall and are rotted where the rubber tube slides on. I looked at using plastic as someone on this forum suggested and running the plastic tube through the old steel tubing. I like the idea of putting Quella's stainless tubes in better. Does anyone have any idea if the heater cores have issues once you fix the tubes?

I also looked at running the tubes below the car alongside the radiator tubes and stubbing up through the floor area to the center console where the core is...that would get the heat out of the cabin also.

Thanks for all the posts with pictures and the drawing of the bracket...I had no idea that Quella had these tubes available.
