Re: Heater refurb


The Mk2 heater is usually a pretty good unit that provides plenty of heat. The usual suspect is the control valve on the side of the unit in the drivers footwell as mentioned before. Make sure it is in the fully open position and flush both ways using the stubs that go through the bulkhead as ...

Re: Rubber floor mats

Thanks for the replies.

NKC570 is not listed in the Dolomite or Dolomite Sprint parts books.
Have ordered a pair from Mick Dolphin.
They are actually for a 1500fwd (which has a narrower transmission tunnel

Hmmm.....

Being a slant four Dolomite owner this is a familiar problem although on these the solenoid does usually click and the car eventually fire up.
On the Sprint I had in the 90s the starter would just stop altogether. I did fit a new original solenoid to effect a cure
but they solenoids are no longer ...

Re: Bottom radiator hose - PAS cars
