would it hurt to stop the flow of coolant through the heater core like a bypass or something

Nope...just wont have heat. Connest the 2 hoses together with a hose adapter you can get at most any auto parts store

You don't want to do this if you still have Dex-Cool. It dosen't like oxygen to much.

So what do they do at the factory to get it in the system? Everyone has to hold their breath or somethin?

Yes you can bypass it without any bad effects minus no heat.

If you are running dexcruel, change to green.

I hate that.....mine pumps out a little bit of heat too with nothing on. Its either roll down the windows or kick the A/C on

Thats a GM trait, ALL my GM's have always had heat seep
