I have intermitted heat.! Somtimes it works great and the gauge goes up to the middle ,and thenthe next time, I start it up and get very little heat and the gauge does not move. When I have driven for awhile there is a bit of warm air but not the normal heat I am use to.
Could it be the thermosat or do I need a flush.
Any suggestions would be great
Thanks Arlene

The thermostat may be sticking open sometimes but that will have to be determined through testing and inspection.
