[Mgs] MGBGT heater removal?

[Hans Duinhoven]

Look at the archives - this issue was discussed before.
I described how I used a small hacksaw to losen the heater unit from the 
firewall.
I my case the rubber gasket made the heater glued to the firewall after 19 
years in California ending in the Netherlands February 1990.

Cheers,
Hans
1971 BGT
