My heater does get warm with a little bit of airflow out of the vents. But not as it should be.

Getting it out to solder it called for putting the truck on a lift so the wheels would hang down and allow "access" to a hidden screw holding the fiberglass housing to the firewall. <BR/><BR/>I'm smarter than that (and don't own a lift) so I took a Dremel tool with a cutting wheel and made a neat access port.
