Spent a cold day in the garage. Fitted the heater and made the expansion tank bracket and fitted it.

That looks quite smart!

What heater unit is that from?

Its from a VW Polo. I've made a flat mounting plate with four round outlets. Two feed warm air into the footwells, two go up to the demisters. The footwell vents have closer plates so that maximum demisting can occur when needed. Here's a picture to show what I've done.

Looks really good!

Fantastic attention to detail by Mr. Youngman as usual!

Well done.
I had copy your work.

picture saved for future reference...

A very neat job!

A qurestion - does your expansion tank connect into the heater loop from inlet manifold to water pump?

Also where are you planning to connect the expansion tank top outlet to?

Cheers

Yep, I've put a tee piece in between manifold and heater. The top expansion tube will go to the small pipe on the Polo radiator.
