Thermostat, heater question???

How long should it take a 92-96 F-150 to warm up completely and produce good toasty heat in like say 10 to 20*??? I put in another 195 thermostat and it seems like it helped some, but not quite. I mean my dads 93 F-150 will blow you out of the cab with some heat and I am not kidding...

Try reverse flushing your heater core.

Probably time for a new heater core. Grab a hold of the return hose to see if it's as hot as the pump hose.

My 94 takes about 10 minutes to start producing good heat.
