My bet is on an air bubble. Just been through this, but I could get heat if I did some hard pulls. 5MT SS here.

Ok guys! I replaced the t-stat and coolant last Saturday, a week ago. Everything went smoothly. Just yesterday it started doing the same exact thing. It went a whole week nice and hot. I was on my way home from work last night, started hot and then again went lukewarm. Now I notice once it goes lukewarm, it tends to blow more air out of the vents, then once it goes back to hot, it slows down a bit, like it has a fluctuation in a door or something. My mind is boggled. What I don't get is, why it went a whole week without an issue. I would think the issue would still be daily as it was before i changed the t-stat. I did noticed that the seal in the t-stat didn't look good, so I thougt I nailed it.

Did you burp the system real good? Sometimes those air pockets can be real stubborn. Other than that, you're back to a blend door problem.

Dammit, lol! Yes I did burp it well. It was an SOB!! Is it one particular blend door?

Did you check the heater core like donbrew suggested?

You can use some air to check for obstructed heater core while the t-stat is out.

IF it turns into a blend door actuator issue, here is a link to the procedure. Thanks to former mod ChevyMgr.

Yes, blew air through it

Did you use a AC Delco thermostat ? Dexcool ?
What are your temps running now ? Are the temps the same when it was working correctly and then started acting up again this time ? |
