Heater Problems

[bluenose]

My heater only blows luke warm air. What would be the possible causes of this? Is it likely to be the matrix? I've heard this is a bugger to do! :?

Thermostat?

Whats the gauge showing?

unfortunately its probably the matrix :(

The temp gauge very rarely goes up above the quarter mark, which i thought was odd as my willy 2 used to run not far off half way up. Would that indicate a thermostat fault? :?

yes or a gauge fault. test how hot the top hose gets. if it really hot but the gauge says cool. could be the gauge. if its luke warm the thermostat. could have a low temp one fitted.

Hmmm. Might just change the thermostat and see what happens. They arent that expensive are they? Is it a pretty easy job to fit?
