    I pulled out the heater box to change the heater core......I think I opened up a can of worms. Rodents had built a nest out of insulation right on top of the blower motor resistor. Is that a fire waiting to happen?? I dont know how hot they get. It is also time to clean out the cowl!!!!!

    they have a seal kit for the box also, may want to install one of those while you have it out.
    I also suggest having the new core tested before installation ...:yup:

    Nothing yut. I had surgery on my right knee last week, and it went very well. I can walk ok, and drive my truck ok, but the Mav manual brakes might be another thing. Gonna try it later, let you know!
