hey guys i went in for a coolant flush a few days ago and before that it was warm out so i turned the heat dial to the cold part and my temp gauge went to cool. i went in fo a coolant flush and i doubt they did the flush sence there was no drops of coolant anywhere in the engine bay. but now it is still doing it. does anyone know what this could be cause by so i can fix it.

i dont understand how turning the heater on makes the engine run warmer than not having it on. -- should be the opposite
either way i'd be flushing the engine, the heater core and replacing the thermostat -------------------- Mike W
