too much spark

It probably low on coolant. The heater will blow cold when there is not enough water (coolant) to keep the heater core full. Check the radiator (not the overflow reservoir) when it's cool.

Check thermostat

u may hav to remove bulb on dome-its not hard---the wiring is old or thers some module issue thats gonna take $$ n time

Check relays and fuse

Are you sure its not a vac leak ?The blower may be running, but if you loose vac when you open the throttle you may loose the ability to blow air out the vents.There should be a storage tank to keep vac in the heater control system when engine vac drops.

Yes ur in need of a new water pump.

You have a STRONG Voltage Draw on the Electrical System and it is not being able to provide the entire car with Power. Test your Alternator, you may find out that the Voltage Regulator inside is starting to fail.....Does your Radio seem to not play as loud?Is the Power Needle going down when it happens?

I would check the under hood fuse distribution box their should be a fuse that controls the starter or possibly be a starter relay

Hello, No! I'm assuming that the temp gauge is working in truck & you are not over heating. On the passenger side firewall check both hoses going to/from heater core. If both are not warm then it is probably a heating core plug. You will have to replace the heater core.
