No heat in cabin for first 15 mins. Please help

I got 2000 interpid when i start it in a cold morning the temprature gauge stays at minimun for 15 minutes then slowly starts to go high and for this time there is no warm air in the cabin. After 15-20 mins. there is no problem. I already replaced thermostat and radiator water but there is no difference. Please help thank you in advance.

Doesn't sound too bad. I had somethign similar. My 95 had the same thing, it would overheat and then blow cold air. Sometimes getting the air out of the system is a bitch.

I would say you ahve air in your system. Open the bleeder valve and purge the air out of the system.

One word of caution is to look for how air gets in there. If its been like it since the rad change, you are probably safe with just air not having been purged from the system. If it just started hapening, keep an eye for white exhaust or milky oil... that may be an indication of a bad head gasket.
