My tercel puts out some heat!

Post by xirdneh »

shoved a thermometer in the top vent and cranked up the heat. 155 degrees
thats the highest i have registered on quite a few tercels tested
the lowest was 90 deg
Love those Tercell 4x4 wagons but they sure suffer from road noise.

i have no idea
what i can tell you is that i have had two tercels that registered over 150 deg
i did no work on either heater systems
the funny thing is that they were both 1987's and both were dark blue cars
the one i am driving now is the one i looked at for you in silverdale
when i sold the first one it was hard to let it go because of the great heat
