Greetings Ladies n Gents,
Ok, so my poor lil old bones, NEED a heater and defroster that work...We replaced the thermostat, figuring that was the culprit to the cold air blowing threw when the heater was *supposed* to be on...no luck. Temp gauge says it is still *colder* than Normal, barely lifting the gauge up into the very low normal range. Engine does get warm, I can hear the vent/doors moving and apparently slipping open...but still icy cold air.
So, is it more than likely the heater core gone bad? Or should I look for a different problem? And if it is the heater core, how easy/difficult is it to change one?
My truck is a '91 Ranger 4x4, 4.0L with A/C, 5spd Mazda trans and an XLT trim kit.
Thanks Bunches!
