2004-01-12 Thread H. Kwakkel
Hi guys, I'm preparing my 66 Malibu (non-AC) for the annual check-up and now I have a problem with the blower fan. It did not work at all, but I found out one of the levers on the dash was broken and one of the elctrical connections was not good. It will run in the highest position now, but does

I'd mentioned using Gunk and a couple other brands of engine flush with some success. As Jeff mentioned, pull the valve covers and clean out the heads by hand as much as possible before using the flush. You'll also want your first few oil change intervals to be somewhat short as sludge and
