Hey Guys... New to the forum and just got an exp yesterday.
Truck is a 99 with the 5.4 in it, 4x4 etc. Mileage is at 197K.
Guy I picked it up from put a thermostat in it, motor does not overheat at all, and get up to temp but I'm getting no heat in the front or rear at all. Hoses are getting warm, and I'm smelling a little bit of coolant but not positive from where. Cannot find a leak or see a puddle at all although I've yet to pressure test it. Waiting on an adapter for my tester from the tool truck.
If anyone could point me in a direction at all I'd greatly appreciate it.

I pulled the console out, and fought to remove the blend door actuating motor. After finally getting it out, what ever it interlocks with inside the plenum came out in a bunch of pieces. Motor moves when the heater controls are turned up and down so that's all working at least. Either way the whole dash has to come out whenever I can get the pieces to repair it. 
At least I've got some heat now though... it's stuck at whatever temp it feels like spitting out which lately has been HOT. I'll take it though for now.
