Most of the parts stores should have a new one for about $25 bucks. I bought one last year for a 66 (?) and it was $26 and worked fine. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 940 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2003 Posts: 940 | A new one might improve it, but the '67 to '72 Heaters sure seem like they are just not as good as the old '60 to '66 systems.
