Hi again, These chilly mornings (temp about 20F) have left me with a desire for a bit more heat. (that's an understatement.) The 77B, with a 190F thermostat, warms up quite readily according to the t

Being as how I was putting it back together in November, I opted for the max open configuration. I'm not about to dig out the hose this weekend. The dash vents are ducted to the a/c heat exchanger so

There are couple of things that can be done to increase hot air flow. Previous discussions on this list indicate that if you run your motor with heavier gauge wires, probably through a relay, you wil

Air flow is not the problem. Actually, there is a copious amount of air through the vents to the point where it's quite loud. The problem is that it's barely warm. BTW, I used Moss' $35 (thanks agai

If you turn the lever on the valve, note how it works by running it the groove, a coarse thread sort of action. On both my MGBs, the dash control only moves the lever about 90 percent of the motion

Hi Bud, The passage in the heater control valve isn't very big, maybe 3/8". It clogs easily in my experience. Mine was almost completely clogged with what looked like alkali. I replaced the valve and
