| I had a feeling from what you were saying that something was blocked, ordinarily you can drive around middle of winter on a 2 degree night windows down heater up. I talk from experiance on that one. |

| Yeah , im not cold now lol, however its not as hot as i would have liked, do you think it might be the valve on the heater tap meaning not enough vacum ? or prehaps i need to power flush the heater core with a flushing agent and compressor ? |
