My vsicous fan doesnt seem to come in - I suppose the clutch is a wearing item. Is it available sepeartely or must I buy the whole fan?
There is a double solenoid valve next to the Vacuum servo. With age the valve seats wear so that the heating is permanently on, even with the aircon on. I have clamped off my heater as a temporary measure by bolting two bits of bar together around the hose, until I can geta new solenid valve, so now my aircon works fine. The side vents tend to blow hot air if the valve is leaking. The centre vent is not so hot.
