What feeds the heater core? fitting next to the thermostat or the water pump fitting. Not getting heat inside the truck. Motor up to temp 1908. Vents will read 120-125* at idle then when you drive will go down to 90-100*. would seem hot but isn't. Entire cooling system was replaced about 4000 miles ago. Heater hoses going to the heater will both get hot, than after you drive it the one going to the waterpump will be cool, believe this to be the return line. Rad is always filled when checked and overflow is too, no leaks detected. I know its something stupid that I am overlooking. Going to pull the heater hoses off and check to make sure heater is not plugged. Sometimes the heat works good and other times it doesn't, mostly doesn't. Should there be a restrictor in the return side?
