There probably are several possible causes, and I will provide those which I can recall. In order for the heater core to heat the air passing through it, there must be HOT water [engine coolant] FLOWING THROUGH the core. Obviously, in spite of the replacement parts you installed, something MUST BE preventing that flow of hot water. Most, if not all, vehicle heating systems which use engine coolant as the source of heat, have a control valve [linked to the heater controls on the dash] which "turns off" the coolant flow when the control is off, and vice versa. If THAT valve is in the off position, hot coolant CANNOT flow to the heater core. Possible causes for that failure of coolant flow could include: 1) The control VALVE is "frozen" (stuck), in the CLOSED POSITION. This could be caused by corrosion, or a broken or disconnected control cable linkage. 2) Some kind of BLOCKAGE ANYWHERE in the system. This could be in any of the hoses, or in the the connector "elbows" to the engine, or some other point in the engine cooling system. 3)Unless you have had the vehicle since it was new, a previous owner may have installed an extra, inline cutoff valve somewhere in the system, in order to fully shut it down during the heat of summer. If such a valve exists, it could be in the closed position. In addition to the above good answer, the thermostat may be installed upside down. Spring goes toward the engine block. ______answer---- All of the above are good answers, on my 92 Corsica there is a heater door controlled by a vac switch. If the switch is bad it will not allow heated air to the cars interior, it's unusual but there is no inline valve on the heater hose it's self.

Sounds to me like a partially clogged in line fuel filter or a weak fuel pump. Check your fuel pressure with a gauge up by the intake. Any shop can do this for you at little or no charge if you do not have the tools needed. Crank/cam or ignition modules most of the times either work all the time or don't work at all.
