I replaced the HCV but upon starting the car the temp gauge took awhile to move and when it did, it went almost straight to the H mark and I had no hot air coming from the heater. I noticed that the coolant resevoir was bubbling a bit like there may have been some air in the line. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue? Thanks for any help Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator May 8, 2012, 9:42 AM Post #2 of 4 (1825 views) Re: Explorer HCV repair Sign In No harm intended but you should probably seek pro help. Boiling coolant could easily cause nasty expensive problems, T Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator May 8, 2012, 10:15 AM Post #3 of 4 (1793 views) Re: Explorer HCV repair Sign In You never got all the air out of the system. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

The heater control valve has to be open when you refill and bleed the cooling system too. Since we volunteer our time and knowledge, we ask for you to please follow up when a problem is resolved.
