What does that tell you? And it's not free, it's 4 gallons of antifreeze, by passing the valve, cost nothing. Well a hose coupler and two clamps.
Could be a clogged heater core too, flushing will prove that, but not if the valve isn't working.
Look at what he did, he replaced the motor, which is why I lean HCV, not clogged heater core.
It is more likely he didn't hook up the vacuum control, or electric control for the HCV when he put the motor back it. I bet there's a rouge vacuum line blocked off some where that shouldn't be, that's the HCV vacuum.
