Heater problem
Posted by Spencer Cleary (more from Spencer Cleary) on Tue, 23 Nov 1999 09:13:52
1993 T16S Convertible
I was sat in heavy traffic and it was bitterly cold outside. I had only just left home so the engine was still cold. After about 5 minutes the temperature gauge was showing normal , but I was still in very slow moving traffic. I put the heater on, but all I got was cold air blowing in. I fiddled around with the dials but I was still getting just cold air blowing in to the car. Once I had cleared the traffic and was on the motorway the heat started to come through normally. It appeared that the heater would only blow warm when the car was travelling at greater than engine tickover. When I came to another traffic jam the heater again started to blow through cold. Now apart from moving to Australia or Florida where I would not need the heater, does anyone have any ideas of what it is that is causing this ?
Thanks
