You can disconnect the heater hoses and flush the core by running a water hose so the water flow runs in one direction then reverse the hose so the water flows in the opposite direction.or you can with the hoses disconnected drain the heater core and fill the core with clr and let sit for about half to an hour then flush with water reconnect the hoses and fill cooling system and run car it should allow heat.if not try with clr again.if you clamp off the heater hoses before disconnecting them you won`t loose very much coolant.

If the core is clogged because of particles and corrosion you may just want to replace it. You will have to unhook the two water hoses to the core and backflush the core and that shjould push the stuff back out the inlet hose. The two lines are the ones on the back of the engine firewall.

Unclog a heater core

The new cores are really thin and rather cheap,it's best to just replace it.
Messing around with flush and the like might get it to unclog a little but not like a new one.

My heater core is clogged, is there any way to unclog it instead of replacement?

No easy way. You can try backflushing the heater. Might try disconnecting both heater hoses and useing a garden hose to attempt to flush water backward throught the core.

Changed thermostat still blowing cold air

Get it warmed up, and with the heat on and running, feel the coolant lines that go from the engine compartment through the fire wall to the heater core. They should both be hot. If not you may have a plugged up heater core. If you can remove both hoses and flush water through it, sometimes this will unclog the core.

Heater not working properly

Your heater core could be blocked. The easiest way to find out is pull it and see if there is anything in it. If not have your cooling system completely flushed out. also make sure none of the heater core hoses are being crimped.
