What's the best way to heat up these diesel trucks for hot air? Block radiator? I tried running it on the highway in 4th gear and that seem to help.

I had a new heater core put in.

I've done that too. Normal days it's fine so I know the truck is good. Even my mechanic said they run cold in the winter.

Wonder if they can change the thermostat?

I replace the tstat when a driver complains about heat. Also make sure the fan isnt running all the time. If everything checks out, I go 1970s and put cardboard infront of the radiator.

This might be the first serious thread or reply Ive ever read from you.

 

[Indecisi0n]

I will ask mechanic about tstat.

But, he works harder and has to put up with the likes of you.

If its 10 degrees out, you're freezing your ass off, the temp gauge is reading low and the heater is putting out cool air, block the radiator with cardboard. Just keep an eye on the temp gauge. If the gauge goes to far in the hot, remove the cardboard. Below 20, it will be fine. Above 25, watch that gauge

Who wants to help heat up my core?

I used to use a Budweiser 24 pack box flattened out

And I make more money than many of my customers that TIP me for Christmas.

Should I ask them for a copy of their W2 before accepting a Christmas TIP?

Block the grill, not the radiator.

That will stop the cold air flowing through the hood and through the gaps in the firewall and engine cover.

Get some duct tape and seal up every gap you can see inside.
