    The device above the thermostat housing, in the bracket, is the deceleration mixture control valve. Without the smaller vacuum line connected to it it isn't doing anything, you can remove the larger vacuum line from the manifold and cap it. When there is a momentary high vacuum spike from lifting off throttle that device will introduce a small amount of fresh filtered air from the bottom of it through the large vacuum line into the intake manifold to offset the rich spike caused by that.
    You may not even benefit from it with the propane conversion, I kept it when I converted to a Weber though. It doesn't rob any power, is totally passive and can help drivability so why not? Cheers!

    I run a fail-safe 160* ( trail riding, slower speeds I want it to open sooner) your propane converter water needs to be separate and not restrictive. the heater core is selective. you can add a gas ball valve to manually open/close as needed. or replace the valve (75.00 +/-)

    @10:12. The defroster feels weak because the control is not set to defrost.

  • @adeebam5723

    Instead of connecting the water tubes directly to bypass the faulty valve you can install a small shut off valve which you can open in winter and close in summer

    I did the same mod on my heater core box, but used a piece of aluminum heat tape to cover the hole. My defrost barely works too and I think I might have to take the dash apart to figure out how to fix that. Mine was full of pine needles.... like a ton of pine needles.

    The blower fan resistor is not allowing you to get all your fan speeds. It is up near the top of the duct housing on the drivers side.
    Also I would take the heat selector valve off on the fire wall and clean and lube it well. Mine had little bits of RTV stuck in it and wasn't allowing for a good flow. Just unbolt the 2 10mms and unclip the control wire. You can manually open and close it and look into the port that's pointed towards the heater core and check for debris.

    • @FortuneOffRoad
      @FortuneOffRoad  2 роки тому

      That's a good idea. I was thinking about ordering a new one, but maybe I can get it back to working condition. The propane kit came with 2 "Y" connectors so you can split the coolant flow between the engine and heater core. That is probably a good option too. 🤙🏻

  • @user-df3kt6ox1t
    @user-df3kt6ox1t 2 роки тому

    If you just turn the fan there should be a little resistance and should not spin freely. That's how I thought you check the fan clutch. Maybe i'm wrong? I replaced my control valve. Pretty easy, $70 bucks Great content👍

    You can put a piece of aluminum mesh gutter screen over the air intake at the base of the windshield to keep most of the junk out.

    I'm sure you could run a separate loop to the propane regulator. If you don't replace that heater valve you are going to have a hot foot.
