Needs to be bled likely.
So when you say that the heater core does not seem to be clogged do you mean the air passages thru it don't seem to be clogged or do you mean that you have tested the fluid path and it's not clogged. The symptoms you note and the age of your car seem to point to a heater core with clogged fluid passages. You really have to remove the core to see if it's clogged by pouring water through it under the faucet. Next suspect would be the solenoid water valve thats in the supply line to the core. It works on 12 volts and you can check it by jumpering it to the battery while you have it out.
