Title: FB/EK Holden NASCO Warmaride heater enthusiasts guide
Post by: Harv on October 11, 2010, 11:42:59 AM
Ladies and Gents,

Attached below is my first-pass at an FB/EK Warmaride guide:

https://docs.google.com/fileview?id=0B47Ngr_OkcgoOWU4NmVjYTgtYWM0OS00Mjc5LWJjZDktMGY5MzdlZTI2MGI5&hl=en
http://www.scribd.com/full/37747089?access_key=key-10mqu75enkejxi2r1r8t

Same file, but two files locations in case one gets screwed up.

I know it's geared towards FB/EK's, but a fair amount of the info is common to FE/FCs, and may help some people out.

As the document says, it aims to provide some information regarding the NASCO Warmaride heaters fitted to FB and EK Holdens. It contains
 ;D historical information, such as which heaters were advertised for different model Holdens,
 ;D practical information on identification, disassembly and reassembly of FB and EK Warmarides, and
 ;D guidance on replacement parts and overhaul techniques.
It contains answers to many of the questions that seem to come up every winter on most of the early Holden forums:
“Where do I connect the heater hoses to?”
“Where can I get demister ducting from?”
“Is anyone making aftermarket demister nozzles?”
“My heater tap is dribbling hot water… can I replace it?”

The information is free for anyone to use as they see fit. I'm no Warmaride guru - if I've got it wrong, please let me know and I'll update the document.

Cheers (and heres hoping your knees are a little warmer),
Harv
