THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i always do that, it seems.

To solve this problem// a person should come to a complete stop WHEN
shifting from rev to drive /// drive to rev. Now the sun-shell is NOT
subject to the shearing force that causes it to break!!!!
The part is a piece of crap/// but that bit of caution will keep you out of the repair shop!!!

A heater core can either plug up or leak. If it leaks, you will smell antifreeze in the car and it will fog up the windshield. If it plugs up, you will have no heat. But there are other things that can cause a no heat problem, like a thermostat stuck open or a faulty heater blend door actuator.
