heater?

the blower works, i can hear the flap for cold and hot move back and forth, the car is full of coolant but it won't blow heat only cold. has a newly installed waterpump also. heat hasn't worked since i bought it.

flush out your heater core, mine was blowing out warm, i disconnected the heater core lines and ran a hose through the line going in to the heater core, flushed out a lot of crap, hooked everything back up, rebleed cooling system. my heat came out so hot that i thought my vents were going to melt

When I flushed out my heater core a chunk of crap about the size of a large marble came out. After flushing you will have heat again.

yes! thank god. its my current daily driver, although i have a gtp but some how the ex gf made off with it, don't know how that worked out yet, and my only other car that i drive has the engine out so i was really not looking forward to driving this thing at all. but its fixed! now it just needs an alignment and it will be good to go for the lovely winter.
