Did 914's and buses have gasoline heaters and if so where were they and how did they work? Love to see a picture if anyone has one. |

Jake: Do post pics of the install.
So, four options for six conversions or sixes that lost their HEs: 1. No heat (where I'm at right now) 2. Heat exchangers, factory or aftermarket 3. Gas heater 4. Heated seats, heated vests (LOL!), hair dryers in the front trunk to defrost (LOL?) I've got heating elements in my seats that need to be hooked up, but wonder about defrost—and my feet—on cold days. One thing I never liked about my 914-4 SSIs was the heat bleed on hot days, even after installing new diverters. There was always at least some heat coming through. Not nice in a black vinyl interior. A gas heater or some sort of electric heat would negate that problem...not to mention the CO problem. pete |
