94 tracker heater fix

[kyle.mccarley]

I had an issue with this tracker that had sat for a very long time before i bought it. Mice nested in the heating system. I removed the blower motor and cleaned what I thought was the heater core which solved the problem of the air moving through the vents but the heat still wouldnt work. After some searching on the internet I found out that the heater core is under the dash.

My question is can i cut a hole in the side of the plastic cover and blow back through the floor vents while using my shop vac to get the junk off my heater core and then plug the hole? Or is there any way to clean it without dash removal.

I already flushed the core so I know its getting warm water to the core.

Thanks
