Hello to all!
I had to drive from San Francisco to L.A. with no heat over the Thanksgiving holiday in my Gen I black SHO. 31 degrees--outside temp-- had me pretty frosty by the trips end. The buttons all seem to work fine in redirecting flow, say from floor to panel to defroster. But I get NO HEAT at all--- despite what temp I dial in, ot combination of settings I try on the control unit. Is there a specific sensor that may be bad, or am I facing having to replace the entire control unit? Secondly-- in the moist, and cold mornings that have just started here in the Bay area, every morning I have to pump the clutch pedal hard to the floor maybe a dozen times before the starter will engage with the column switch held in the start position. After that initial morning start-- the car starts on first try any other time of the day. Where is this lock-out switch located that prevents one from starting the car with it in gear?. On the positive side, the car is running great, and averaged 28 mpg @ 80-85 mph to L.A. --where I made it on one tank of gas. Those that helped me through my high NOX problem a few months ago are thanked again. This car with 135K, a 80mm MAF, chip w/LPM, cold air intake, f&r strut braces, external adjustable Koni's, Eibachs, and other mods--- cost me $390 to pry away from a prior unappreciating owner. Easily the best "bang for the buck" I've had the good fortune to stumble over lately.
