Re: [Chevelle-list] heat = smoke (69 El Camino)
Heater core is shot. They are fun to change :-). Tom
[Chevelle-list] heat = smoke (69 El Camino)
Seems that when I move my top heat lever to the left (from cold to hot) smoke comes out of the vents. It doesn't smell like burning plastic (i.e. electrical). In fact it doesn't seem to smell at all, but there is definitely smoke. Move the lever back to the cold position and it stops. Blower is off when this happens. It's just the air ebing forced through the vent as I drive. Do you suppose it's a bad heater core? Thanks, John Nasta

RE: [Chevelle-list] garage therapy, was: 1969 Chevelle SS for sale
I'll agree. I got home from work last night, did some work on the computer, made some dinner, and sat down on the couch to eat/watch TV. After flipping channels for an hour, I turned off the TV in disgust and went out to the garage. It was 9pm and un-seasonably warm. I had the overhead door open while I cleaned and re-jetted my Holley (going to the strip on Sunday), started installing the wiring for my EFI, and took the Corvette out for quick spin around the block after recently getting it drivable again. I ended up being out there till midnight, and would've easily stayed out there another hour or two if I didn't have to work in the morning. -Dave -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Bob G Sent: Friday, October 15, 2004 10:17 AM To: The Chevelle Mailing List; The Chevelle Mailing List Subject: Re: [Chevelle-list] 1969 Chevelle SS for sale At 08:33 AM 10/15/2004, Wayne wrote: >One added note..

I agree. Well said Mike. Big difference between a rust bucket basket case and a solid body with all good flooring, etc. When I speak to people at shows I explain to them that these cars come in all price ranges and condition. Nice drivers can be found at reasonable prices and with alittle investment and alot of elbow can be turned into very nice cars. Whether its a frame-off or a maintained survivor, take pride in your car and enjoy it. There is no way to calculate the Smiles!!
