Default 95 accord lx problem with cooling system

e95 accord lx f22b1.

I used to have really good heat, to the point to where it would feel like your face would melt off. but recently it stoped working. all it does is blow out cold air. i already changed my thermostat. but when i feel all the coolent hoses only the upper and lower hoses are hot. its not getting back to my heater. both hoses going to the heater are cold. are they clogged, if they are how do i unclog them.

Try your heater core thats the problem most the time.

ok now do i need to go by a new one or is there any way i can flush it out. cuz the hose that comes right off the motor is cold that should get warm shouldnt it. and will that stop it from over heating cuz it sill over heats with a new thermostat in it. my temp gauge reads normal but the water boils. and i did bleed the cooling system like 3 times now

Isn't there a valve 'in-line' for the heater core? If it's not opening, no water will flow through it.

yea there is a valve there and i know it is opening and closing but the end that comes off the block doesnt even get close to warm while the upper and lower radiator hoses are hot. not one part of the hoses that come from the block to the heater core gets hot or even close to getting warm.

After ruling out a broken/disconnected heater cable, I guess you have to open those heater hoses & decide whether the valve or the heater core is blocked. I can guess a few possibilities...

Heater core is full of crud - get a new one - PITA to take dashboard apart?

Heater valve external arm works but it's plugged or broken internally.

Radiator is also full of crud - based on your comments about overheating. Fixing the heater isn't gonna completely fix the overheating.
