Title: Heater fan
Post by: olefafl on February 02, 2007, 07:41:11 PM
Can the heater fan be replaced with a different one that moves more air?

On some Jeeps you can install a Chevy blower without changing anything, it just bolts in.  But moves more air.

Haha, I thought it was only mine!!  I was thinking maybe it was just wearing out, and was going to buy a new one from the dealer. BTW- look under your dash and make sure all your duct work is connected, I had a lose one, and it was leaking air, I fixed it and it made it a little better, but it still sux.

I have been looking for an older snowcat heater. My friend mounted one in his jeep and the that rig stays VERY warm in the winter.

If your a Sammy, dont' forget to clean the heater first.  The heater core gets covered with leaves and such that come in through the air vents.  :)

I cleaned mine out and it helped. My problem, is when I have it on defrost with hot air blowing on the windshield, I get cold air flowing through the circle vents. I don't know if that is normal or maybe a door in the system is not sealing right. I'm sure it is coming from the outside somewhere. Just haven't had time to investigate. Luckily I'm in a tintop so it helps hold some heat in.

I cleaned the heater, it had a mouse nest in most of it.

I also get cold air out of the circle vents, but I filled them with papertowels for now.  I am going to pull the dash out and close off the circle vents so all the air has to go into the heater core.

I was just hoping for a bolt in fan that would move some air.
