Verifying heater recirculator routing

[Eric McClellan]

Hey all,

Hoping someone can verify the routing on the "Chev's of the 40's" circulating heater valve.

Looks like it has to be upside down from the instructions. Can anyone post a picture to verify i did this right?

I did it last night and just need to make sure it's correct.

I don't remember how mine is setup, and the body is on so I can't take a pic. But I remember setting the valve to one position, and blowing into one of the lower tubes. The operation of the valve is obvious when air comes out of different tubes when the stepper motor turns.

Perhaps it's not too late to pull it off and verify with the puff test?

Hmmm... That means I'll have to hook it up to a power source. Hmm...

I haven't done a puff test or run the engine yet, but post #20 shows some pictures: http://www.gt40s.com/forum/slc-clubhouse/44123-heater.html

A battery charger works fine for testing stuff like that.

Here's the picture... left side goes to the engine/coolant tank, right goes to the heater core. I think i got the "in" and "out's" right on both sides.
