The blower motor on my 86 vanagon front heater has died.  I have removed all
the gubbins from up front to remove the heater assembly.  What is the best
way to drain enough coolant to be able to remove the hoses from the heater
core?

Earl -

Last fall I replaced the blower motor on my '87.  I didn't disconnect the
heater core, just lifted it out and set it aside while I fought with the
rest of the stuff.

With the gas heater, things may be different, but it worked for me.
