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. |

The factory heat exchangers bolt right in. The gas heater, not so much.

The factory heat exchangers bolt right in. The gas heater, not so much. And...price for NOS factory heaters? The Dansk alternative were big dollars, and had some serious issues that makes one wary. Used factory exchangers, which are also $,$$$ in varying condition, may have CO problems. Hard to tell, harder to justify buying. None of the aftermarket HEs are attractive to me, personally. Gas heater seems problematic to me. Basic needs in warmer climes seem to be body heat (heated seats?) and defrost/foot warmers (minor electric heat?). Thoughts? pete |
