i have a question for you, our fire dept has a deuce and a half, and i was curious as to what the trick is to make the heater blow hot air, we have the fans working but never got any warm air to blow through it, whats the trick??

Is there a heater core by pass? I know on a lot of the older military stuff they had them incase something happened it can be closed to save water.It might not be running the hot water thru the core so the fan just blowes the cold thru it.

i dont know, i didnt take the time to look, im going to look at that tonight when im at the hall for training, we have a similar setup like that in our dump trucks, we shut the valves off to our heater cores in the summer time and then open them back up in the fall, im just curious about the proper positioning of the controls i guess to make sure we had those in the right place.

Follow the heater core hose's that Bigdaddy speaks of up around the fire wall on passenger side of the truck, their should be a bypass valve up there someplace close, it's probably closed. It should look like a regular round garden hose valve on that age of truck.
