Hello, finally got to this site, only took 2 years, a little slow sometimes. We got our 951 2 years ago and the heat, A/C do not function. There is a few other minor things but that is the biggy. A/C looks like freon, worked then died. The heat is another story. Looks the the PO CUT some hoses on the back of the engine and capped them, hence no hot water. No the question, where can I got a plumbing diagram for this car?

welcome! your heat might not be the hoses. there is a small clip beneath the steering wheel (not directly underneath) that likes to break. its like a two dollar part. i dont know the part number now but someone surely will.

BTW, that is an awesome list of cars.

Keep in mind- during the winter if the AC switch is on you wont get ANY heat. Make sure all the AC Controls are off.

I LOVE my car for the instant heat it puts out.. 5 minutes of driving the heat is warm!

Nice group of cars you have there George If no one posts a hose diagram for you, I think I can get you one tomorrow.

And welcome to Rennlist.

Good repair section at www.paragon-products.com under the Tech Session area.

And at Clarks Garage, but the address slips my mind at the moment.

Thank you for the welcome. We (my company and I are starting a new club (sort of) SEECARR. You can read about it www.leatherique.org/seecarr.htm
IGNORE the Fee that does not apply to you folks.
No Plumbing Diagram yet. Will look under the dash, all I have done with it so far is put in gas, change the oil and buy tires. It is as much fun as the Testarossa and a LOT CHEAPER to run.

I think if the heater clip was the problem, his heat would be on all the time.

George,

Send me your email and I can send you a cooling hose diagram.

I have been using Leatherique the last couple of years, great stuff.
