Hi all
i have been looking at my 2 ltr injection engine , and found two flaps that open and close on the engine , so had a look at my book and it says that a heat thermastat should be connected to them, so when it gets hot it pulls the cable and opens them ?but  there is no thermostat or cable ,  engine runs at 95/100 most days hot and cold , do i need to get one or leave it  ???? also if these are closed will it stop hot air coming in to the cab ? as i get no heat , all tin in place , have opened all flaps , still no air, but looks like a little mice might have been living there, lots of papper and bits chewed up , maybe blocked ? many thanks all
Dave

Last one I bought was from Volkswest- you also need left and right hand tubes- it is a booster fan only.
