Heat questions (again)

Post by Drew »

Van: 1980 Aircooled T25

Issue: Sub zero temperatures inside van

I checked all the hosey type stuff that I have been pointed towards under the van and it all seems to have been replaced recently, at least all the ties are clean and there is no sign of perish anywhere. Would this mean the likely offenders are the heat exchangers?

Sub-question: The holes or passages that lead from the front of the van into the doors have blanking plates screwed over them, is this normal or do they play some part in the heating conundrum?

Cheers

are you sure the heater pod flaps are operating, and are not wired off for summer use, which is a common thing with Aircooled...

I'm everso new at this, at which end are these pod flaps? The noisy end or the cold end?

Okay, got the info now, thanks for your help!
