Dodge intrepid 1996 3.3 L?

My car was over heating , thought it was the thermostate so went and change it. The needle still goes all the way to the top, then it come down to the 1/2 , then it goes back up when i drive. then i noticed that only the area where the top rediator hose is burning hot and the rest of the rediator is COLD . also i got no heat coming out inside the car, and the fans on the radiator are going at a high speed nonstop when the car gets hot..

1) is there a connection bewteen the radiator and the heat unite ?

2) is my radiator is blocked that is why no heat and the car is over heating ?

3) do i need to replace the rediator or a rediator flush might it fix it?

4) if i need to replace the rediator is there a site where i be able to find pictures of how to replace radiator in a 1996 intrepid

more than likely a stopped up radiator in that car and their really hard to flush out,you would be better off replacing it rather than trying to flush it out,but flush the engine block and the heater core out real good before you install the new radiator, not after,this way it wont get stopped up with debris from the engine block,good luck with it.
