Hello pfran6078,

pehaps you should have a look at this link: http://www.volvo-forums.com/t22870-1998 ... w-pics.htm

I replaced my core without even draining the system - when removing the plumbing for the core, ca 0.5 Liter of cooloing fluid had to be absorbed with a towel. Since I didn't open the cooling system anywhere else, the rest of the cooling fluid stayed in the system :D

Bypassing the heater core might even be done inside the engine compartment at the firewall where the end of the pipes from the heater core can be accessed.
