Actually I did manage to get the core out without removing the heater box
once. But I wouldn't recommend it if you value your heater box as I was
lucky I didn't bend the cover in the process. I was much younger and
careless then as it was over twenty years ago. The problem was the heater
was only generating cold air. I pulled the front back far enough to pull
out the heater core. I got some of the radiator cleaner stuff from an
automotive store and pored that in the heater core but it didn't seem to do
much. That is when I put the core on the stove and applied some gas heat
with the cleaner still in it - that cleaned it right out and I have been
using the heater core ever since then - its now in my 72B from my former 71
BGT.
