Well what a long fix that was. I have finally, TODAY fixed the heat in the car. I found, my heater core hooked up backwards, (hoses on the wrong places), the Vacuum line, broken and the control cable to adjust the heat/temp on the dash broken as well. I found a local junk yard, (after alot of looking and asking) went there, got the vacuum lines, and connections, the heater cable, and someother parts. Then purchased a heater control valve from AutoZone, exact replacement. CHEAP, and NEW. I re-routed the heater coolant lines to the correct heater core nipples. Then replaced the heater valve, and Vacuum lines, Today got into the dash and with out taking the whole thing out, took a home builders pry bar, and a long handle screw driver to get the cable off the heater box flapper control. Replaced the Cable, adjusted it, put the dash back together and then there was HEAT..... Took way too long, but had to do it when I could. If anyone has problems with heat, I would say check the things I did. The biggest thing in the end was the cable, but it can be replaced easily. Just be carefull, and heat the heater box first, so the white metal heater box flapper thing the cable conects too isnt too cold. Thanks to everyone that helped. The link for parts
