Hi all,
My 86 Syncro is blasting hot air, even when the levers are over to
the coldest setting. and the temp gauge isn't working, so I cannot
tell if its running hotter than normal.
Not so cool yesterday on a 2 hour trip in 95 degree heat with no AC!
My shins are roasted...
any connection between these 2 factors (heat on and gauge off)?
Do I need a new thermostat to cut the heat off?
Any ideas you all have would be welcome. Thanks.
