Third, if you drove it around town.....at low speeds.......it does take awhile to warm up. A properly working auxiliary pump might assist in getting heat through the core faster. IIRC, you've verified this already, correct?
Fourthly, remember that the temperature inside the cabin is 50°F. before any heat is produced. Accordingly, the system will restrict the heat from the monovalve because the temperature in the cabin is approaching the setpoint (70°F.). Move the dial all the way to the stop to evaluate the capability for heat........independent of the dial setting.
And finally.........do we really need another thread on this.........you've already got one going IIRC? I might just merge this with the old one.

Your third point= I thought it strange that after 20+ minutes of around town driving that my car was still not warm. yes I tested the aux pump. (I stated this earlier in the thread)
Your Fourth point= I stated earlier in this post that I moved the thumwheel all the way to the stop. It should throw heat no matter what the temp inside or out.
Your Final point=There is no old thread. There WAS some redundant info so I took your advice and deleted it. I feel this is a valid thread because I am having strange, unresolved issues.
I don't know if I am just in a bad mood or not but I am getting a little pissy. If this thread is bothering anyone else feel free to delete it or lock it. Or I will do it myself.
My apologies ahead of time, I am on the rag.
