Change the thermostat to a lower degree stat, example, a 195 to a 180 or a 180 to a 160. Keep in mind that some vehicles require a 195 stat for the electronics to operate the engine properly.

How do you heat 1000 sq ft with a 5100 btu space heater like one heater company says you can?
are you sure you don't mean 1000 cubic ft you say square if its square with a 10 foot cealing you can rais and keep the temp 28 degrees c above what it is already so in other words if its - 26 c out and with the heater off that's what it drops to then your just avoiding frost bite and if its -3 you can rais it to room temp or be warm if its zero its all based on the before heat temp like my car takes 1100 btu to heat warm from -30 c so basicly it can and how is over time and how well is based on the non heat temp and the desired heat temp
Why would my temp gauge shows the car not hearing up why does the car has heat how come fans run after car is off?
In most engines the gauge and cooling fans have different senders, so if you have good hot air blowing inside the car from the heating system and the cooling fans on the radiator are operating, and still no gauge reading, you may have the wire disconnected from the temp. sender. The cooling fans can run after a car shuts down, as they are wired separate from the key on their own system, and will run until their sensor shuts them down.
Why does temp raise then cool down when heater is turned up?
This question was for a 1998 Mazda 626. The solution to this problem of the temp heating up is to start the heater in the car on high. Then it immediately goes to the neutral temp for the car, and stays in stable there.

Why is the inside of a car hotter than the outdoor temp on a summer day?
Like a greenhouse, a car with closed doors and windows is a closed space. Heat trapped inside a closed car cannot get out fast. Although the sunlight heats up both inside and outside of a car at about the same rate, the heat getting inside the car is trapped in a closed space. It cannot get away as fast as the heat outside, where it's an open space and heat can lose freely. Therefore, the heat inside accumulates much faster than the heat does outside, which is why the inside of a car is hotter than the outdoor temp on a summer day.
