    heat up

    If the engine gets hot with the heater on, check the heater core under the seat.

    Hey again t,
    I was thinking about bypassing the underseat heater as the fan doesn't work anyway and I don't drive the car in the winter. I can't even imagine how much an underseat core and fan would cost, and I think I could find a better use of money rather than be warm during the month or so I might drive it when it's brisk out! Thanks again for the tip--it sounds like you've been through much of the stuff I'm going through with this car!

    been thru it

    Yes Aaron, I went through everything on the 51, front bumper to rear, all done at once, mostly NOS, decided that was easiest, take care of every thing at once, all new, no problems at all, runs like a new car. ~T~
