I have no heat in 96 Escort?

Question:
I have plenty of air moving, so I know it's not the motor. The air gets above the temperature outside at best, maybe enough to keep the windows from turning to complete ice.

After changing brake pads, the car brakes seem to be activated all the time?


I have plenty of fluid in the radiator and reserve tank. So my question is, is it the heater core? I have almost no time to take apart an entire dash and reassemble, and I have no other vehicle options. On top of that, I have no money, leaving a shop out of the option.

For all you truck drivers! (OTR)?


Could it be clogged, can that be cleaned WITHOUT tearing apart my car? I look forward to any help, thank you.

Brake caliper bolts have seized, can't get them off!? Honda Civic 2000?

There is a "mixer on off valve" located right on the firewall i believe on these models, follow the hoses around, you will find a can type valve with a small vacuum line control that line either has a stuck valve, vacumm hose break, or a defective control inside the car. You can pull a vacuum on that valve and see if that releases the hot water to the core. Id say its not a core problem at all.

Radiator Seal - Does it require an entire new radiator?

yes it could be clogged, on thing you can try if u want is find the two coolant hoses that go thru the firewall to the heater core, take them off (hopefully you can on this model of vehicle) (get a pan coolant will come out) use some bolts to plug the hoses so you dont keep draining coolant out of the engine. then use a garden hose and flush it with water also try putting the water in the bottom tube going into the firewall first then the top tube going into firewall. the idea is to try and push the clog out backwards first. good luck
hopefully its not clogged but if you gotta check....

Problems with Vauxhaul Corsa in wet weather...?

did you think about changing the thermostat?also its probably time for a complete flushing.

How can I strengthen the signal on my GPS antenna?

need to flush the heater core by getting a flush kit that hooks into the heater hose. or it could be that the thermostat is stuck open and needs to be replaced.

i have been told you should not t-cut a white car-any truth in this?

As above I would check the valve located under the hood on one of the two hoses that connect to the heater. Heater cores leak if they are defective. If no leak it's ok.

does anyone know of good modifications for vauxhall corsa M plate?

I would check the thermostat to see if the engine is getting hot.After driving it on the highway for ten minutes at 55 or better feel the 2 hoses coming off your engine that go into the heater core,they should be within a couple of inches of each other.If neither is hot you have a stuck open thermostat.If the hoses are hot I would suspect the heater core is plugged.Take both heater hoses off from the engine and force water into the hose,it should come out the other one and then force it into the other hose.Make sure the heater valve is on heat on the dash other wise the water will not go into the core.IF its super cold do it inside as the water will freeze.Reinstall antifreeze.Good luck!

Can u put a turbo in a car with a super charger? Is it possible?

Could be just a thermostat problem. I would try that first. This the temperature (operating) taking a long to to reach normal?If the t-stat does not work, try flushing the cooling system, force flush with a hose. Good luck.
