First thing is to replace the regular heater valve, which might not be
working.  Or, put a couple of drops of oil in the tube that connects the
shut off lever to the valve.  Just doing the latter made a big difference
in mine several years ago.  But after a couple of years, then, I did have
to replace the valve itself.  Next, as Thomas says below, a complete
overhaul of the under dash set up, but a lot more work.  I haven't had to
do that yet.  mcneely
