Ba4 heater, not enough heat

Post by ned_glenn »

Hi all,

I've got my ba4 heater installed and wired up. It sound pretty cool... and well it it cool, i should say, it doesn't put out much heat.

The metering pump is clicking away, and the exhuast from the heater is hot.

everything seems to be working, combustion blower, ect, but not much heatering going on. Any suggestions? Tommorrow I'll openup the blower and make sure the points are adjusted properly, then maybe I'll have to pull the pump.

I think the temp sensor is bad, but I'm not sure what it is supposed to test at. Any idea?

Any other suggestions greatly appreciated?

The heater is working fine now. I bet the points or fuel system was a bit sticky/gummy after not being used for a couple of years.

thanks,
