im not gonna lie. when i did my heater core in my 89 lx i just used a screw driver to see if there was any refridgerant. I was lucky there was none in it a  . I was getting ready to drive it to a shop with no dash or consles just to get it removed. But i figured it didnt work so there was nothing in it and might as well check. Not telling you to do that its enviromently unfriendly but a way to see if there is any in the system.  p.s never do a heater core in a fox haha.

All you gotta do is use the screw driver method and make sure your not right over top of it.

2nd beer break...other side is on, valve covers are cleaned, dropped them on...no clearance issues. btw, turning over a motor by hand sucks balls. going to put the plugs back in, valve covers back on, then the upper intake and all the vacuum lines and crap...and see if i did everything right
