Re: Dash Heat - is there a hot water valve?
The hot water valve is in the front next to the heater block, I recently came across a great way to test. before you warm the motor set the temp to full cool! then as the motor warms 100deg or better use a thermometer, I recently got a cheap laser model $30 and check the hose temperature on each side. on the incoming side it will be warm on the side entering the heater it will be cooler, verify by turning the heater control on to full till both sides of the valve balance, then return the setting to full A/C if the valve is working you will be able to see the temp drop on the block side while on the other side the temp will stay hot! I find this a great savings. $30 for a laser temp gauge available at most hardware stores. or a $150 service call at a shop.
