    worm air

    hey every one i need some more help.
    when running my car the cold and hot tach will never really come off of cold it will move outside the blue marking on cold but just alittle above the blue. and it will not put out hot air like my jeep it is worm but not hot .
    see in my jeep you end up turning the hot down because it will get to hot but in the car i have to have it on hot all day it is about 40 here in the winter . need help please

    Sounds like your thermostat is stuck open. Simple fix. Get a new one and replace it.

    If you search, there are some topics on this.

      See if it still has a tstat

            That's not your heater core. Replace the tstat first and go from there.

                    May I first suggest, two things...








                    ...these two items should keep you mildly flame-proof.

                        That does not fly here, conform or die. At least spellcheck it for those of us who know how to read.

                          ???

                          I thought it said worm air (as in the slimy fish bait type)...Some kind of new induction pressure boosting technology.

                          What a let down.

                          Yes, try the thermostat. It could be a clogged heater valve or core too.

                            Use firefox and it will spell check for you.

                            what was the outcome of the tstat swap?

                              The heater valve/core would not cause toe car to run cool - just to blow cold air.
