Would this monovalve kit possibly improve the overall heat as well? As I was saying, when Im at an idle the heat decreases quite a bit and will only pump out heat again when the rpms go up. Or would this be more of a coolant flow issue? (perhaps bunged up heater core)
It's possible it would help, but I imagine it's pretty cold where you live and idling a diesel won't generate as much heat as running it, at least in my experience. I've always noticed this on my diesel Mercedes as well, I think the heater draws so much heat from the motor idling will decrease the heater's performance.
