Instead of replacing it, I took it off and bent the butterfly so that it stays open all the time and reinstalled it. Since then I have been working on the truck doing all the body work and have not driven the truck. I ocassionally crank it and let it warm up all the fluids and to keep the battery charged. I will soon be finished with the truck and was wondering if I should replace the heat riser or is it something I can live without? | | |
