Would love to drive it, but need $ to renew the registration. | | | Re: What Did You do To your Van Today? | Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 1,148 old hand | | old hand Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 1,148 | In the last 3 weeks, I have lost what little heat I had (found a completely burnt cell in the blower motor). Had the throttle linkage snap on the way home from ordering the part for that one. Converted my mechanical linkage to cable from a '95 and had the brackets bend so I sill only haad 25% throttle at best.
Lost my headlights that night, but found a jury rigged way to get more throttle.
So far, I have replaced the gas pedal, cable, brackets, blower motor, resistor, headlight switch, and dimmer switch, and have just today recieved my heater switch/cable and dash vents.
I now have headlights again, and can throttle up around town, but still blow fuses every three minutes for the heat. I'm thinking it's in my fuse block, but no time or light after work to test/try..
Let's see what tomorrow brings....
How do you know it won't work? Have you tried it, yet??
