[TR] TR6 heat '70

[Scott Suhring]

I've never been able to get any noticeable heat, even with the fan on high
(and yes, mine has a working low and high fan) if the vent is closed. My
wife has pointed out to me on a few occasions that I forgot to open the vent
since she was not getting any benefit to the heat at her feet. Once the vent
is opened, the heat kicks in.

That's not strictly true; you can get heat with the scuttle vent
closed if you turn on the fan; that's the way to get recirculated
air inside the car, rather than fresh air.
