Check both the supply and return heater hoses from engine to heater for blockage or clogging: remove them and flush. Also check the inlet and outlet pipes on the engine and heater core for gunk buildup and leakage.

How does the heater work on a 1991 Ford Ranger?

After the engine warms up and the thermostat opens up, some of that heated antifreeze is directed through the heater coil. The MVAC fan blows air over it, and the heat transfers to that air, then it's directed through the ducts.


95 ranger over heats no heat in car?

probably a clogged up heater core. The heater operates on the hot water provided by the cooling system. If the vehicle is running hot, it is apparitally low. You will need a full radiator to be able to supply the heater. Repair the leak, replace the thermostat and add new antifreeze.</P>
