A couple of years ago i could buy a brandnew Webasto parkingheater.
Several winters i was angry at myself not having builded in the heater and this winter i began to mount the webasto.
First i made a aluminium box for the heater wich a mounted in the trunk of my 245.
But it's better to show some pic's i think rather than tolking to long.......
I have planned to put the heater in the back of the volvo just like they do with LPG-tanks (liguit gas).
This morning i made a case to hold all pieces togheter.
After a period of other busines i took up the parkingheater-project again....
My son bought me a pair of tubes 22mm to transport the hot coolant to the front of the car.
Now the tubes are on top, later they move underneath the car.
First of all i had to make a hole in the trunk for the heater-box.
I placed the box in the space i cutted with a lot of adhesive stuff.
To feed the heater there has to be made a succtionpipe in the diesel-tank;
The heater comes with a suction- and returnpipe wich fits into a drilled hole in the tank-element.
The exhaust muffler was getting in the way so i removed it to the scrap....
To prevent gasses coming in i had to make a exhaust-pipe to make the cut-of-pipe longer.
So i made a temporary sidepipe....
A vieuw at the rear of the 245 after putting in the heaterbox;
Now the coolanthoses can be connected to the box;
I routed them along the dieseltank to the middle of the car just above the axle.
No, the tank is not leaking, it's WD40 to let the hoses pass more easyly.
Now the hoses are waiting to be connected to the tubes 22mm running to the engine.....
