Did you check your t-stat? That's the first thing I would check.

1/2 to 3/4 blocked off radiator.
Factory temp gauge reads "normal" when water temp is 145-200......below 170 = shitty gas mileage...... oh yeah, make sure whatever you use that it is secure. Nothing like smelling melting plastic for 2 weeks from where it blew onto the header. |

I'm thinking he's saying to take a piece of cardboard and block off half the radiator and see if it helps lol.

Take both hoses off the heater core, hook up a piece of hose onto the core, flush both ways with a gargen hose. IF the car is coming up to operating temp this fixes 90% of problems for me on customers autos.
