Thermostat help
Ok guys I had a 160 in before and now that its winter I changed back to a 195 so I would have hot heat but my car will barely get over 100 going down the road I dont know why it worked fine when I first put it in a few days ago but ever since then it wont heat up so I have no heat and the lady doesnt enjoy it nor do I lol. So any help would be appreciated on what it could possibly be. I went with a failsafe thermostat by the way. I also know its not the temp sensor because my heat isnt hot at all.

Re: Thermostat help
pull the tstat and see if its stuck open. if it is check to make sure the heater bypass valve is allowing hot coolant into the heater core.

Re: Thermostat help
So Ive heard and it actually got pretty hot the other day when I got stuck at a wreck and my fan doesnt work so that is probably it but picked up a new duralast one today about to slap that in the car now.
