I turned on my 1991 Buick Century this morning. Usually I let it warm up but I had to get to work quick. By the time I got to work the temp needle was on H and the heater wasnt working. Usually the heater works really good and I have to turn it down at medium. What could be wrong? This is the first time this has ever happened.

Welcome to the forum, did you look under the hood to see if radiator fan is running, when it was hot? Was the overflow bottle full up or anything? Possibilities, thermostat-- water pump-- clogged radiator?

Step 1 - A heater cannot operate unless the engine is full of coolant/antifreeze. If coolant level is low check the system for leaks.
