Default another question. . .interior water noise+ABS problem

Hey again,
I currently have the stereo out of my car awaiting the aftermarket transplant. I'm having trouble figuring out how to wire it, so any help with that would be awesome too. Here's the one I bought http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWNX:IT
only difference is mine is the 4100, not the 3100, they sent me the wrong one.

Anyway, on to the questions I made the thread for. Because I have the stereo out, there's no distracting noise while I drive so I can hear things I hadn't before. After I start the car and start driving a bit, I can hear what sounds like water pouring through pipes. Is this just the heater core or something?

Question two: My ABS light is on. I remember seeing something on here about GM informing everyone that this is most likely caused by a dirty wheel speed sensor? Is that true? What's involved in fixing this if that's the case?
Thanks,
Dan

Every once in a while I hear the same water rushing sound coming from the passanger side dash of my 2001 Blazer. I don't know what it is. If it's not leaking I'm not worried lol But I still wonder what it is lol

The gurgling / swishing water noise from the passenger side compartment is air in your coolant system. I live with the same noise! IMO, if you still have heat, just live with it. I, on the other hand, am 2k from the 75k milestone of flushing out the system (that may irradicate the issue). I have also been told you can park your truck on a steep slant, with the radiator cap being on the upslope side. Take the cap off, and run the truck a bit. IDK, kinda like burping your system? If it works, let me know!

The ABS problem is common (my old truck). You just have to get under your truck, and clean everything on/near the wheel, and the sensor itself. Good luck
