heat while driving
Wayne,
The S60 doesn't have the gate valves the v92s have. Just turn the heat on and it should work.

Could be ball vales instead of gate vales...look for handles vs. round handles. I'm not up to speed on the 60 series. But, my guess, BB plumbed the 60's basically the same as the 8V92. Someone wil chime in with more info. Curt Sprenger 1987 PT38 8V92 "MacAttack Racing" Anaheim Hills, CA On Mon, Oct 12, 2009 at 9:30 PM, Wayne Kotila <"waynekotila@yahoo.com"> wrote:
