So my heat like barely works... not sure why last winter it worked great? its blows out..just not heat lol... so I have an idea with a 2000C-4000M watt inverter I have laying around.. hear me out
The heater is a 1500Watt, and the inverter is 2000 Continuous and 4000 Max, So im pretty sure it will work in that aspect. But I am wondering if I can run it off my "stock" electrical system? I have 2 batteries (rear Kinetik) but running on the stock alt because my 220Amp alt over heated. Can I run the heater? or should i wait to get my high output alt fixed and back (in a few days) Or does anyone know why my heat just doesnt work anymore? thanks!

i'm willing to bet that all you need is replace your thermostat and you'll get your heat back.

Brand new thermostat
 that was one of my thoughts as well) QUOTE (azian_advanced @ Feb 1, 2010 - 7:16 PM) i'm willing to bet that all you need is replace your thermostat and you'll get your heat back.

That makes sense, I will be looking tomorrow  all ask if i run into any problems. Where is the heater core? I went to a auto school for 2 years so I know a little, I could prob change it, if your idea doesnt work-QUOTE (95st-celica @ Feb 1, 2010 - 5:14 PM) pop your hood You will see a cable that comes out of the top driver side firewall, with a round hook on it that connects to a small black box...take your hand and move that little hook all the way over...either to the right or the left. Get in a start your car and let it warm up...then go back out under your hood and move it all the way to either the right or the left, doesnt matter....get in your car and see if it's blowing hot/cold...if its blowing cold, get out and shift it to the other side, if its blowing nice and hot, problem fixed...just take your knob on the climate control and re adjust it. I hope you understand what i am talking about...its not that hard Its either that or you blew your heater core A heater core is cheap...but its the labor thats going to kill you. -------------------- I've spilt my heart into this car :) And I don't ever plan to stop - 6GC for Life - >Semper Fi< 1994 Cupra :p 3sgte 1995 Celica ST DD 1969 Chevelle SS alllll balls.
