Then my first thought is that if your thermostat stayed closed until 'too hot to

True, but if the valve is closed there's no flow, so the lines are going to be
cool at best. That's why checking the hoses to the heater core won't really
mean anything unless you know you have flow.

'92 should be old enough to work on yourself. Find the heater hoses where they
