Unless it's something simple like the hose has a crack or the connectors on the firewall that link the heater core to the engine aren't tightened down all the way you're going to have to replace the core.

I don't know how it is on a CRX, but for my car at least taking out the dash isn't that big of a deal.

Depends on the car really. They range in price new from $20 to $100+

Call up an auto parts store and ask.

The heater core costs a tad bit more than $100 brand new, especially if you're going with OEM... Best bet is to hit the junkyard.

Two Chiefs in Suffolk has a few CRXs that probably still have the heater core in them.
Their address is 1385 Portsmouth Blvd, phone is 934-0807
