2000 Silerado Heater Problem?

If the coolant level is low in the engine it can cause heat fluctuations from the heater, as well as an incorrect reading on the gauge. Make sure the coolant level is correct in the engine.

If the temp gauge is now more stable, the problem is in your heater system, not the engine cooling system.

check themosat for gauge check vacuum hose for heat migh be bad

the heater vacuum motor and lines needs to be checked.Also get the blend door checked.

NO HEAT ON FLOOR VENTS

Could be a thermostat problem or your heater core!

try feeling your heater hoses going from the engine to the heater core. they should be hot at operating temperature. If one is hotter than the other noticably it would indicate a restriction in the core most likely. A partially stuck thermostat could also cause loss of heat but you say the temp is normal. Start with checking hose temperature if they are both on the cool side compared to the radiator hose then further diagnostics are necessary. hope this helps. Keep in touch.

Chevy made some weak intake gaskets on 3.1 and 3.4. My guess is that the intake gasket is weak and/or leaking and it is letting pressure out somewhere. At idle maybe the system pressure is to little to push hot coolant into the heater core.

when engine is cold remove radiator cap and check coolant level,sounds like it is really low and has an air pocket in it.
