thats what I mean, don't expect too much heat if you have a 180* thermostat in there and live in a fairly cold climate.

Put back the factory rated 192* or 195* one and enjoy the heat.

I have checked all the vacum lines the one on the fire wall falls
off once awhile but when I put it back on It would work. It was
working just went out after it set for couple of days it wouldn't
work. I plugged the fan in direct to battery and it works great

I had heater core replaced and after this my
blower is not blowing as fast as it used to. It
has to be on high to get barely enough air out of
dash vents. Also defroster air not blowing hardly
at all even on high. Can hear blower working as
usual though.

It sounds to me like whoever performed the repair botched the
job. If you're lucky they'll fix their mistake for free.

Another so called professional! When you inquire about the job they know everything, you have the work done and they screw the job up!

I have a 2002, so far I have replaced the
resistor twice. It is still not working properly.
Resistor gets burned out and can smell
something burning when that happens. I have
to tap the wires to come on, sometimes it
doesn't. I am now going to replace the blower
motor and resistor(once again)with a new
wiring harness $84 Can. Blower $84 U.S. I hope
it will work. Plus my headlights keep burning
out. Annd now interior light just went out. Time
to buy a new truck, but what kind? Lol
