Question
when i go i see water coming from the heater core.what do this mean?

Answer
Joseph,
      It means that your heater core is bad and needs to be replaced. They are designed to leak when they go bad, so it will keep leaking until it gets fixed. Depending on your year make and model of car, it can be a fairly easy DIY project.

Expertise

I can answer most questions on Chevrolet vehicles up to 1996, or before the ODBII.

Experience

I have been working on cars since I was eight, when I started handing my dad wrenches. I did my first complete rebuild at 14, and my first restoration at 16. When it comes to Chevy, if I don't know the answer off the top of my head, I can find it out fairly quickly. (My entire family is a bunch of gear heads.)

Education/Credentials
