Heater

Pulling the heater assembly to find the leak and get everything working. Getting the blower out of the way proved to be fun and the manual has no diagrams to go along with the description. Once the fan was out, the 4 case bolts out, and the vacuum tank dropped, I had to rotate the heater unit so that the side usually facing to the left was now facing the front in order to clear the inner wall of the fender. Not much room in there. The unit is now out and I have to determine where the leak is and how to fix it. And speaking of the vacuum tank. There was nearly a half-gallon of brake fluid in it. It was completely full! I guess when the previous owner rebuilt the master cylinder, they did not check for that. The vac hose looks original too.
