Summer a/c worked fine (still does)...but now no heat from dash. when I first select "heat" I get maybe 10-15 secs of warm air then it goes cold (this is at freeway speeds) so I would think the heater core is good....I was told that it might be the BLEND VALVE, but with the Cragen tech manual I have, I can't find any info on blend valve. I did replace the FAN in this summer....could I have done something wrong there. It was pretty straight forward, I bought the fan and housing from junk yard and replaced as a unit......TIA..wearing a big jacket, Hut!

probally a cloged heater core. that happened to me before, motor was hot but no heat was coming through. what i did was pull both heater hoses from the fire wall, took a garden hose and alternated between the two core lines, doing that flushed out all kinds of stuff from the core.

Check your thermostat. If it is stuck open your heater will be cold.
