[Mgs] Heater Motor

[Barrie Robinson]

Mark,

Some earlier models were not so friendly !  When I did the cut 
everything was easy - and I later found out that the factory had made 
similar mods to later models.  But the big thing is that you may 
think your heater is A OK but it isn't.  For instance your air flow 
may suck (I mean not blow well!), your flapper is not closing 
tightly, or your water flow is restricted.
