Now that the warm weather is here, I'm in the final stages of replacing the missing heat system components on my bus. The final piece to install is the left-side heat control box and its corresponding heat riser tube. My question is - does the heat riser tube flange fit 'between' the two engine tins as seen here:
OR is it mounted 'above' the upper engine tin as seen here:
It seems that it should be mounted above the tin instead of in-between. If in-between, there would be a small gap betwixt the upper and lower tins - causing some loss of air from the cooling fan. I consulted the Bently and did not see any photos that helped answer my question.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank You,
Jeff
