Porky Pig has the real deal heat exchangers but calling their output anemic is being generous. The flappers close completely so that is not the issue. On my SC with backdated heat (no blower motor) and SSIs it will cook me to death. Never been able to stand it even with the levers at 3/4s.

So what do I need to recheck on Porky?

First off make sure your flapper boxes are hooked up and working properly. I've seen more than my fair share of boxes on cars, and the cables dangling in the air not hooked up. They rusyt and break, things get stuck and P.O.'s simply unhook the cables and turn the flappers open or closed etc. If that's all fine then clean out the exchangers inside, and all of the duct work in the car. Check the exchagers top and bottom for rusted out sections. You could also have bad tubes in the longs either form rot, or previous repairs that didn't put the hose back in. Several factors at play
