"rubber piece") which connects the outlet of the fan housing to the inlet of the heater box. Don't know about high-windshield cars. It will be tough to fabricate, but I've seen them on eBay. Might even be available from one of the suppliers, since it's not likely a high-volume piece. There is also a round neoprene (~4-inch diameter) elbow-shaped duct which connects the inlet of the fan housing to the air inlet valve. I don't know what the function of the inlet valve is. Again, I've seen these on eBay, and they're probably available from someone parting out a low-windshield car. I changed the heater core on a friend's low-windshield car without pulling the radio console. Do-able, but a real b___h. I'd pull just the fan housing and check the motor first before getting into the heater box where the two-speed resistor is located. WHY Nissan put that resistor inside the heater box instead of somewhere it could be serviced without dismantling the car is beyond me. If it turns out to be the resistor, I'd get a replacement and bypass the one inside the heater box. Anyone know a reason that wouldn't work? One preventative maintenance suggestion: Replace the 2-inch piece of heater hose which runs between the nipple on the heater core and the heater control valve on low-windshield cars. Mine disintegrated when I decided to service the heater control valve (leaking) with the engine out. If that little hose fails, you're done until you replace it -- not a simple roadside task. It is another absolute b___h on a 2000, since there is so little clearance to get at the clamps. When replacing, use gear clamps which have hex heads so you can get a socket on them. Even so, it will be a challenge.

However, I am always game to learn something new. An Internet search turned up a great article titled, "How to Rebuild An Early Datsun Roadster Heater Blower Motor". I figured I would give it a try. SUCCESS! I followed the article with the exception of replacing the brushes because they looked pretty good. I did do the following extra steps. Disclaimer: Proceed at your own risk. Steps I followed: 1. I think my biggest issues was the motor had probably sat un-used for years and year and was extremely difficult to rotate, so disassembly and cleaning was my main focus. 3. Pulled the case apart and took the armature out. 3. Mounted the armature in a drill press and polished up the ends of the shaft that ride inside the bushings. 4. Took steel wool and delicately cleaned the outside of the armature and commutator using the same drill press method. 5. Then, steel wool to the inside of the magnets. 6. Blew out all the dust (while wearing safety goggles and a mask!) 7. Reassembled and the shaft spun very easily and smooth. 8. Test connected the motor and is spun up quite nicely. Please let me know if you have questions. Now I just need that rubber duct that goes between the blower housing and the heater box. Cheers, Alan 1967.5 1600 Portland, OR P.S. My body still aches after spending my weekend upside-down reconnecting all the heater/vent control cables. :) ________________________________ From: Gary and Cindy Ault To: Graeme Suckling ; datsun-roadsters at autox.team.net Sent: Sunday, February 10, 2013 5:41 PM Subject: Re: [Roadsters] Heater Blower Motor Graeme, OK, but why not in the outlet of the blower housing?
