the a/c lines have threaded connections and are metal and the heater hose is just that heater hose.

Will that do the trick? Ive seen those before. The video i watched from eric the car guy on youtube he used the two heater hoses an compressed air to flush just the heater core. I only see 2 hard lines.

Nevermind you guys. I have to replace the heater core. The previous owner said it has a hole in it and he disconnected the lines
"I blew out on me when I was over in Spokane. So I cut the lines and butted them together. Never fixed it."
....:| thanks though

Here is a nice DIY on dash removal in case you do not own a manual.

Does not appear to be too bad of a job.
