Tempo Heater Core

[a_liner_3265]

I need to replace the Heater core in my 93 Tempo. This is a job I have done before on other cars. Has anyone replaced one on a 93 Tempo? How bad was it. Any words of advice before I get started.

The only experience I've had with Tempo heater cores is the one I replaced in my 84 Tempo about 13 years ago. TerminalVelocity hit the nail on the head. Good Luck. There's hardly any room in between the engine block and the connections for the heater core. Hope you have really small hands.

I found that the easiest way to replace a heater core in a 1993 Ford Tempo is to replace the whole car with a Dodge Intrepid.

Been there, done that on an 89 Topaz. Even with the interior gutted (it was a parts car and an experiment), I had to lay a sheet of plywood down on the floor (to keep from being poked by the seat studs), and crawl up under the dash.

It's really fun with the seats in the car and having to stand on your head. I've done that too.

I need to know how you did it, I need to do one to.
