Remember. You have to:

1. Take the glove box out of the vehicle

2. Remove all dash %26quot;Trim%26quot; to locate the screws that are hidden, then remove all screws.

3. Go to the engine compartment and disconnect all %26quot;Heater Core supply and return lines.

4. carefully locate hardware connecting heater core to firewall, then remove.

5. Replace with new heater core and reconnect supply and return water lines.

6. NOW TEST! BEFORE you replace all dash components.



I hope this helps.How long does it take to change a heater core in a 1998 ford F150 xlt pick up?22 screws l8r I dont know?How long does it take to change a heater core in a 1998 ford F150 xlt pick up?The 98 model heater core is vertically mounted, thus the dash must be removed and the top of the evaporator case removed for access. The book shows roughly 7 hours of labor.

A Ford tech that does this often can beat this time pretty easily, but if you have only done it a few times or never, it will take that amount of time.

The one who said 15 minutes, good luck. Love to see you do it!! Now the older trucks were quite easy, and 15 minutes on those was about right. Not gonna happen with the new body style, though.How long does it take to change a heater core in a 1998 ford F150 xlt pick up?6 hrs. if you know what your're doing. You have to remove the dash, I've done one already in 2 hrs., but that was because half the bolts were missing
