Re: fogging

[Frog Foot <frogf00t@yahoo.com>]

I lost my HEAT!!, I recently had a heater core hose blow off, replaced
it 3 weeks ago (after driving from colorado to michigan (detroit area)
only 1 hose exploded.. thankfully I repaired it quickly. (2 hours
later) and luckly. I had a second car with me on the trip to go pick
up the hose. 

after fixing it we drove home with no problems. the heat worked fine
also. we know this because we used it primarly to keep the engine cool
as it over heated. 

later on - about a week, we found that the fill resivour (where you
put the anti-freeze/water in to fill the radiator and cooling system) 
had a leak in the sensor area, I tried to repair this by seeking out a
new sensor, but had very little luck, so I picked up a new tank with
sensor off a junked audi at a import junk yard (I live in michigan) 

the part cost me 15 bux so I was happy. and it was actualy in better
condition then my old one .. still had the tag in german on it. :) 

anyhow. the last incident that occured -- 

I blew a host line into the engine (coolant) and had it replaced..
then the sensor (oil) got destroyed so I had that changed out also. 

now. when I turn the heat on, not because it's overheating, because
I'm cold.. it's wintery right now.. it's not working.. 

any suggestions? the system has been filled and Right now I'm going
through the normal procedure of adding water and antifreeze as the air
gets out of the system to top off the fluids in the coolant system. 

Will I get heat back when I get the fluids back to normal!?!? please
say yes!!! 

hah. anyhow.
