Take the thermostat out. That should drop the engine temp. If it dose then buy a new one to get the heater working. If it was the heater core your windows would steam up and you would smell coolant inside the car.

Snapped glow plugs!!?

you probably need a new thermostat. you can buy one for like 20-40 bucks at an auto parts store. and most of the time the thermostat is on the top on the engine so you can do it in like 15 mins. either way you can get it fixed for about $50 (even if you take it to a mechanic)

The two most common causes for this problem are that your thermostat is stuck in the closed position, or there is blockage in your heater core. Replace the stat, if this does not correct the problem, flush the core.

How do you use jumper cables to jump start a car battery?

it could be either 1 or both,but i would first check the thermostat,then check the anti-freexe to see if its full.ok do this,after you get it warmed up,shut it down and take your hand and feel on the inside(next to the fan)and see if you feel cold spots.if you do then the radiator needs flushing.you might as well flush out the heater core while your at it.
