How to replace a heater core in a 1988 Ford Escort?
Its probabily located under the dashboard somewhere, thats all I know dude. Ive only changed 1 heater core before, but it was on a Pontiac, but it only took 10-15 mins.
If it is anything like my S15 Jimmy 4X4 find a new car!
It was behind the dash like all of them but it took 4 days to change it as you have to remove the entire dash to get to it.
Most heater cores I have changed (About 7) have taken from 20 minutes to 4 hours, this was the worst I have ever had to do, and 4 weeks later a head gasket blew!
Oh well.

Buy a repair manual, or go to the nearest public library to look at one for free.
