hi guys on my 73 2000 sc my heater blower works on all settings the motor sounds fine but it's not blowing no air through, any ideas please

i'll get it up on the ramp and check to see whats happening if I can get away with cleaning and freeing of with a new set of pads thrown in then i'll be happy with that, but we'll see. :D

well I finished the front calipers and made a few new brake pipes today I've bled the system and all is well with the master cylinder and recon front brakes now I have to recon the rears, I ended up using the master cylinder that came of as it's doing the job, thanks again harvey

my money is on the wrong master cylinder I rebuilt it with a new kit theres nothing wrong or stopping the piston travel, the rod I made was apx 4mm longer and it's a full threaded rod so well and truly adjustable, I now know why when I bought this car the brake pedal although working was only 3...

I haven't started bleeding them yet I fitted one of the recon front calipers today and doing the other on Monday then fitting new pads then will bleed, at the moment I have put the recon master cyl back on, the pedal is in the correct position and when I push it it only goes halfway down around...

well I put the pedal box back in this morning and fitted the newly made rod and the recon master cylinder adjusted the pedal so it was roughly in the correct position you can imagine how elated I was to find the pedal only travelled half way down the air was some what blue,I think I have the...

it was a FPITA lol, I think i'll make one tmrw will save a lot of messing about, I assume they should be straight as the one on mine is bent, and I don't want a bent one im sure :D :D

well Harvey I can tell you it was 100% seized solid I had to undo the master cyl move it as far forward as possible and cut through the adjusting rod where it fits to the master cyl with a steel blade by hand that was a fun 20 mins I can tell you lol, once of the car I got some heat on the...

Harvey that's a bloody good point im sure I only tried to turn it clockwise but I cant remember will double check tmrw

thanks Harvey i'll try that as you say as long as I can get the master cyl off hopefully without any damage the rod will withdraw with the pedal box assembly i'll let you know tmrw lol cheers.

that's what I was worried about it wont budge so I may have to try and cut it of if I undo the master cylinder and pull it forward will it give me enough room to cut through the rod between the cyl and bulkhead?? thank you.
