heater core

I have a 97 F-150 with 5.4L

My question is, Does the instuctions Don ( Thanks by the way ) wrote apply to both the 4.6L and 5.4L ? Is there much of a difference?

Anyone have any more advice on the replacement of one of these suckers?


I got to get her done before elk season


Thanks for all the help, Justin

WOW, Big thanks!!!!!!!!


That is some set of instuctions!

Printing them off now.

With those and the one Don wrote up it should make it less painfull of a job.


Remimber the good old days when it took about 30 mintues to change one of these guys.

I love Fords but I'd like to kick one of their enginers in the a*# over this.

Your very welcome! ... YUP! It was so much easier back then to do this kind of work .. Now it seems like days ... OH! it has been! Until I found these instructions ...

Haynes and Chiltons doesn't provide me with enough info ...
