Sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes he eats you.
My afternoon started with replacing the tank heater on my 1206 IH.
1. The bear got me. The drain valve on the block was plugged and I got a face full of antifreeze. It was about +2F and I have to work outside.
2. The welsh plug came out east and the heater installed in far less time than I thought it would take, poor bear.
3. While the block was drained it was time to hook out the heater hoses for the cab. That too went very well. The bears getting smaller.
4. Can't get heat in the cab. I've never done this before so I'm guessing that one has to bleed the system to get hot antifreeze to the heater core. Score one for the bear.
It a 1206 IH diesel with a year a round cab on it.
