The heater blower in the engine compartment of my 73' 1.7 has a single inlet for the hoses from H/E's . I have seen these with two inlets one from each side of the motor.
The passenger side on my car has been capped by po. There is one, not connected because torn, hose from the drivers side that looks like it would be the only source from the h/e's to the blower motor. Is this a stock set up? Was there a tee fitting of some sort to remedy this. Do I have a very strange blower motor installed?

Thanks.

Early cars (70-72) had the double outlet housing fan.
Mid cars (73-74) had a single outlet housing fan with a single hose to the drivers side and a stock cap on the passengers side. (This is you. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) )
Late cars (75-76) had the same single outlet fan with a splitter and hoses to both sides of the motor.

Heating air comes not only from the auxiliary fan you're seeing, but also from a small amount of air coming from the engine cooling fan. You can get some heat without an aux fan, but it's a small amount compared to the with the aux fan.
