Hello there. First of all I want to thank the board for being able to search the posts for good information. I decided yesterday to replace the leaking chrome t-stat housing (previous owner) with a stock housing lying around. Bought a new t-stat and gasket. Leak fixed. Next I decided to figure out why my heater would only blow cold since the (PO) put in a new heater core. I checked the forums for info and both my hoses from the core were routed to the proper places and were hot to the touch so I ruled out a water flow problem. I read that the heater flap door may be stuck open. Well I was about to disconnect the heat control cable when I saw a 1inch by 2 inch rubber boot that the cable went through towards the firewall. I moved it aside and saw that the cable had fallen off or possibly not put back on the flapper door when the heater core was changed out. Manually pulled the door closed and yes I have heat again. Then put the cable back on. ( I've owned lots of 67-72's and they have always roasted me out of the cab) Anyway sorry to ramble on I just wanted to say thanks.
