If there is no heat from the heaters then the coolant isn't circulating. See
my earlier post about bleeding the air out.  The water pump could be an
issue too.

Ok lots of suggestions about electrical possiblities.  I checked the
connections on the back of the cluster, that got the tach and the idiot
light working again.  Now I have a pegged out temp gauge and a blining idiot
light.

I can hear the coolant boiling, lots of pops and clunks coming from the
coolant lines under the van.  Drove a little, pegged out again within just a
few blocks, kicked the fan on high with no change, tried to run the heat in
the van to help, blows cold air.
Now what?
