http://www.ducktec.com./itmidx3.html seems to be a better issue ... i am so pleased my diesel has a diesel heater factory installed under the seat/bed thermostatically and timer controlled to come on for lets say 10 minutes every 40 minutes though i am still having some issues with running it because i dont speak or read german my girl does and she translated using dictionary.com translator but i am still not proficient at it ... my 69 BUN in which i installed all westy parts was an iceberg in the winter i used to hang a propane fired catalytic heater from the roof but i was still in a state of advanced cold shaking nearly hypothermia after a 40 minute drive and in case anyone wonders ... A Bun is the round roofed type two and Brick is the square "flat" roofed model that followed ... so i was told... yours
