Ok so I have no heat at stop lights or any time the engine is at low RPM's. I have read in other places that it is a vacuum issue but I do not have the Heater control valve installed it is just a straight hookup to the heater core. I also replaced my water pump not 5000 miles ago and it had the problem before that (replaced water pump b/c I was doing timing belt). Fluid is also topped off. So even with the heater control valve removed can it still be a vacuum issue or is it a sign of my heater core going bad or something else?
It is a 1998 Mazda B2500 2.5L with 173k miles. The heater blend door is broken and the hot water is directly connected to the heater core.
I kind of think it is the heater core going bad and that I just need to rip into the dash replace it and the blend door. Thoughts suggestions?
