So, been working on installing Jeepair on my 98, not too bad of a job. While I had it torn down, figured I would replace the radiator, thermostat and housing and water pump. Got it put back together and pulled a vacuum on the AC system and it held over-night, was soooo happy. Put antifreeze in the radiator, started it up and almost immediately the green fluid started coming out of the AC box drain hole and between the sheet metal on the firewall. Too late and too tired and hot (113 with the heat index) to mess with yesterday evening. Thought about it quite a bit. since I drained most of the cooling system do you think the pressure was too much when I started the engine,,maybe with all the air in the lines and block etc took out the heater core?
I cleaned and inspected the core prior to re-installation, it was a brass and copper one so wanted to keep it.
Thoughts?
