How i fixed mine. Well the reason i want to flush the heater core is because i have been told and have read that its a common problem with the taurus. Disconnect both hoses that go to the heater core from either end the end at the heater core or the end at the water pump manifold radiator etc using a garden hose preferably with a hose repair end attached to plug into the hose or a short piece of hose cut off to connect to the heater core run water in each direction through the heater core until water runs clear then reverse.
