Re: I never see any reference to the HEATER or parts

The hardest part of working on the heater in my series 23 Deluxe 8 was installing the fresh air flexible hose on the rectangular metal barb. My hose was broken and old so I bought one to replace it. The hose supplied by a Packard parts source was round and had to the shaped and forced onto the rectangular barb. For an old guy with arthritis in the hands the job was impossible. I finally hired a mechanic to install the hose and after lots of attempts he finally got it on.

I suggest you try to install the square end of the hose before putting the unit back in the car if the hose needs replacing.
