Yes, mine was working (on my 85) but then stopped.  Believe I checked all the fuses but that’s as far as it went.  I used it regularly when I was young and poor and drove it all winter.  But now that it’s a summer only vehicle it never got used.  I would like to get it working just for the sake of getting it working.

I believe Robert Keezer was the gas heater guru but haven’t seen him post in some time.Warmerwagen?
