heater core is probably clogged.

or do you mean that the engine temp gauge shows colder then normal operating range?

usually you get to replace it, which means you get to remove the dash. Its between the firewall and the front face of the dash.

I would take it somewhere and have them look at it tho, dont trust my E-Diagnosis 100% :o

I have the same problem with my 2000 5.4. Can I use pressure to try to force water through the core?
