First test run = toasty
Mind i need to sort out a "manifold in 15mm copper ,so that both
matrixes ,and the round heater in the cab can all run in
parallel rather than in series as they are at the moment .An i
also need to replace the fan motor housing ,as there is no
bottom in it at the moment :shock: ,so i am loosing a goodly
amount of air .
first test results are promising though ,a few hours well spent
i reckon

Mmm something I've thought of doing for a while. I've also got
a cunning plan to increase the airflow to the demisters.

I did consider trying to find a way of NOT drawing bloody
freezing ambient air in through the matrix ....either drawing
from the cab OR pulling the air in through the (hopefully) warm
radiator ...but never got round to it .Dohhh!!!!!

I don't find the temperature of mine is too much of an issue, i
get plenty of warmth, just lack airflow
