Hello. If your fan is blowing on all speeds, it is probably your thermostat in the water system that is at fault. (probably stuck open) hope this helps.

Testimonial: "thank you very much . but i put a new one in ."

    Is the fan working on all the settings? If not it sounds like the heater plug/Ballast resister has burnt out. It is located up in the passenger footwell towards the middle of the car. This is a common problem and ford have a modified wiring loom with thicker gauge cables and a new ballast resister. You will probably find that your loom and ballast resister are burnt due to the current being drawn through these smaller gauge cables. Sometime the heater will work on the lowest or highest setting but not on the other settings. Hope this is of help to you.

Why would my heater blow out cool air when sitting still and then hot air when going down the road and then it's not all that hot

Try flushing or blowing high pressure air through the heater core lines. its sludge build up and need to be flushed through heater core only. check antifreeze fluid level. only put in straight antifreeze, do not mix. most people do not know what mixture should be, so be safe and add straight, it will not hurt it, i run 100% straight antifreeze and never had a problem or worry about it ever freezing and cracking my block, heads or radiator cracking.

Heater blows cold air

With the car warmed up,feel the heater hoses,are they both warm/hot near the firewall in the engine compartment?If they are both warm/hot,then the heater core should have circulation through it and it may be a "blend door" issue in the heater a/c assembly.If they are not warm/hot then the heater core could be dirty and plugged up and needs to be flushed.
If the above does not help,a drain and vacuum of the cooling system and vacuum refill will remove any trapped air.
Sometimes,clamping off the top rad hose and holding the engine rpm at 2000 rpm will force trapped air out of the heater core.(Watch temp gauge when trying this)
Lastly,a NEW thermostat doesn't mean its working correctly.
