what kind of ducting can I use to go from the blower motor to the J tubes? Is there any alternative to the stock ducting?
Knowing that one of the biggest problems with the heating system in these cars is heat loss. Has anyone tried using the foam insulation that comes in a can to unsulate the main ducting in the inner long? This might provide more to the paper insulator that is already there. |

the paper "insulator" in the longs is actually a "muffler" ... it "muffles" the sounds from the engine comp. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) so, yes, insulating foam will help. btw, the factory thought about that possibility, that's why our cars have so many access holes to spray in "Hohlraumversiegelung" ... check out this thread: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?act=...=2&t=35658&st=0 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool_shades.gif) Andy |
