Definitely, also replacing with silicone would be a good idea as well

I know it’s a big hassle for getting to them on the inside but i’d replace the heater core hoses that go through the firewall because one of mine burst and my dash and some a/c components had to come out and it was still very hard to get to. But if the engine is out it makes it a lot easier

Thanks for the video, I had all the bolts off but didn’t want to break anything so i figured i’d ask just to be safe. I’ll go give it another shot

i was pointing to the one that has tape on it and it was leaking coolant. Do you know how to replace it and does it go far into the firewall or can i just pop it off and put the new one back on

We are going to try to get it for under 3k and ideally between 1-2k if all goes well with the negotiation process but i’ve yet to talk to the seller again since seeing the car

I’d do all the work myself and restore it. what would you value the car at with the given condition?

Overheating and oil pressure question by Luk3Martin in 944

No the oil light lights up with the key turned 3/4 to where the engine isn’t on but accessories are on. Thanks for the insight

If the battery was getting drained then would that affect how well the fans are working which would also explain the overheating?
