The domestic auto industry does not indulge its consumers with comfort. The heating system of Russian cars is ineffective due to poor design and sometimes poor assembly. Drivers have to find ways to increase the temperature in the car on their own.
Necessary
- - wrench;
- - screwdrivers;
- - gloves;
- - hoses longer than 15cm;
- - electric pump of the GAZelle car.
Instructions
Step 1
Compare the operating modes of the stove, first at idle, and then at medium engine speeds. The lack of heat in the cabin at the minimum speed, which is typical for the urban rhythm of movement, indicates that the stove needs to be modernized.
Step 2
Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery. Remove the ignition assembly by unscrewing a few bolts. Do not forget about the high-voltage wire, which also needs to be pulled out. Unscrew the cap of the coolant drain tank and drain the antifreeze, first wearing gloves
Step 3
Connect the heater hose with a new hose. It is possible to build up and qualitatively connect both hoses using a small piece of water pipe and clamps. Look for the studs next to the battery. Install an additional electric pump on these pins. Prepare the fastening clamps. They will be needed in order to put on and carefully fasten the hoses to the vertical and horizontal branch pipes of the installed electric pump.
Step 4
In the car, install a button that will regulate the operation of the pump. You will also need additional fuses and relays.
Step 5
Pour antifreeze into the cooling system. Install the previously removed ignition unit. Connect the negative terminal of the battery, start the engine. The electric pump should turn on simultaneously with the start of the engine. There should be no parasitic sounds, since a working electric pump works silently.
Step 6
Leaving the engine running, inspect the installation site of the electric pump. Check the hose attachment points especially carefully. If coolant leaks are noticeable, make sure that the retaining clips are in working order and have not been displaced by the pressure generated by the operation of the retrofitted interior heating system.
