Heater Doesn't Get Hot After Radiator Install

[jakez88]

hey guys pretty much what the title says. put the heater all the way up to 32 degrees but its no where near hot. just changed my radiator aswell as coolant obviously and now it doesn't work properly. i know i won't need it since its getting hotter but want it fixed.

any help appreciated. thanks

Did you bleed all of the air out of the system with the engine running and the heater turned on? I haven't owned an RB20 but I assume the bleed screw is next to the intake manifold like the RB25?

yeh heater was on and bleed screw was unscrewed till a solid stream of coolant was coming out.

i would check at the rear of the motor on the firewall, the heater water lines have a valve on them that is operated by a cable from in the cabin. check said cable is still over its pin, or you will never get that valve open. its not that your coolant isnt hot, its that it isnt going through.

If all is good there, maybe something unplugged somewhere. if it was working fine before, good luck lol
