have pressure tested for leaks first, make sure coolant level is correct or you won't have any heat.

Yes,and thanks so much.... i took the car in and had that test,turns out it has a cracked cylinder head unfortunately.It had a slight coolant leak at the time we didnt know where it was coming from..My daughter had added coolant to the system,however i dont think she kept up with it as she should of allowing it to fluctuate in temp too much,and as a result,this is what happens...
Thank you once again..
