grumps Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Hello Does anybody know how difficult it is to fit a new heater matrix to a Talbot Express 1971cc Petrol 1990 G Reg Or is there a way to wash it out as mine seems to be blocked? Thanks Grumps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrytraveller Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Hi Alan, I have had a similar problem on a car a long while ago, I just located the rubber pipes that flow in and out of the matrix, and put a hose pipe on them one at a time until the water flowed okay both ways. A word of caution though, it would be worth flushing the radiator and engine waterways at the same time. My last new MH had a problem with the eberspacher heater, the engineer who fixed it topped it up with Bluecol and it reacted with the Peugeot fluid, which caused the vehicle to overheat, because it blocked some waterways in the radiator. Providing you know what antifreeze you have, you can top it up with the same - but if you don't know, then flush all the old antifreeze out before refilling with a good antifreeze.

docted Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 Grumps at that age it may be more than a blockage. Try a search on the forum for "delfin". Derek Finlay is the man to help with your query he specialises in Sevel vans.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
