my dodge dakota makes no heat, I have flushed the entire coolant system, tried

It may be a bad heater core or heater control valve. With the engine warmed up and the heater on, are the heater hosed (under the hood going into the firewall) getting warm? If not, you may need a heater core.

I had this exact problem as did my dad in his 92. Simply reverse the hoses on your heater core...sounds crazy but it fixed both of our heat probs in our dakotas.. right up top super easy fix.

    My 1992 Dodge Dakota won’t shift into fwd any longer. This came about over a long period of time. For a long time it was just finicky but now it’s not working at all.
