Has anyone out there ever figured out or adjusted their ventilation
system to work properly?
My Westy is Air Cooled and the fresh air vent fights the heated air flow
in winter months, I close it off and I get plenty of heat up front. With
the tape off I get plenty of fresh cold air but very little heat.
