[QUOTE="Stacy Waldrep, post: 1010229, member: 67695"] Yardsale, I flushed and changed my coolant as just routine maintenance back during the summer not because something was wrong. With nothing being wrong, I didn't think to check and see if heat worked or not after the flush. I just know for a fact that my heat worked fine last winter and I don't recall if it got really hot this past September, October, or early November as it wasn't really cold then where it would have been noticeable as it is now. When the engine is at normal operating temperature, the upper radiator hose and the two heater hoses are warm to the touch but not really hot. That's one reason I changed my thermostat cause I thought they should be warmer to the touch than that. The thermostat change didn't seem to make much difference with that though. I'm not sure where to go from here. It's too freaking cold outside to do much work on it and I don't have enough heat in the truck to be comfortable. It sucks. [/QUOTE]
