    Not to argue , of course not, but hes been wrong a loooooot making me think the safetys on and the mags not even loaded...

    Maybe we should call this thread the analogy thread.

    Ok, as I understand it, TD is absolutely correct, whereas others, perhaps people with engineering qualifications, knowledge in the field, drivers, or people whose daddy's have let them sit in the big seat, are wrong.
    Heaters, like the broom-broom, work by the pedal on the right side telling the magic pixie to wake up and make the car go. Obviously with 21st century technology this extends to the magic calorifier, where the magic pixie holds his breath when the ecu says more heat, but magic pixie says no.
    Is that in a nutshell oh genius one?

    What? The heater runs of the engine heat and wont circulate without the engine running.

    Heat retained by passing an air flow over the coolant? the heater doesnt work when the engines off

    The heater wont work like that, it would be stupid to think it would.

    Your not smart enough for me to talk to any more

    The heater cannot work like that. The fans will work the heater wont as the coolant will not be circulating. That happens when the engine is running.fact.

    made your selves look silly. Pure mse.
    Actually, you've made yourself look rediculous, so whilst I agree with your statement, you've said it to the wrong person.

    Eg. An engine up to temp that is then stopped. The ignition is switched to appropiate position(I possibly depending on ignition key setup) then the heater is switched on. Fans rotate and air flows. Then the heater control is moved from blue(or cold or low numerical temp etc again depending on car). This will not heat the cambin. The heater wont heat. The heater wont work.

    Stop/start or a normal iginiton the heater wont function without the engine on. End of.Im laughing at all of you because it displays how poor this forum is

    Id say that might be best. Maybe the quicker the better
    In response to GwylimT sarcastically saying that they should quit their job.

    Here is a list of all the things I disagree with that you've said.

    Well, not all of them. I got bored after the first 4 pages.
    Enough of a list for you? Believe me, I've got more.

    Are you really, really not sure I've got it right? Ask a grown up and see if they can put you straight.

    Namely; the first paragraph mentions electric elements( not a subject broachd by me-but mg agrees that it is to be disregarded).

    Shielder mentioned that to say it was NOT about that.
    topdaddy wrote: »

    So following on from that, paragraph 3 brings a kettle into the mix(gosh, really mixing analogys now) but I do agree with that discription, hot kettles are hot-really they are, who knew?!....

    It was another example to help explain to the terminally dim.
    topdaddy wrote: »

    then we progess paragraph 4. The op never said they had the heater on.

    It doesnt matter. If they had the heater on, the car would use what latent heat it could from the heater matrix. If the heater wasnt previously on and you put the heater on, the car would restart to heat the heater matrix.

    Fact. Also theres a statement that I "confused matters". Not true. I made a stand alone statement about my experience/quandry.

    But you havent made a "statement" - you just keep telling us what its not?
    topdaddy wrote: »

    Then mg started an arguement, happens alot Ive found.

    No. You did. Post #36. Then you have your "classic" Post #41 "The heater wont work like that, it would be stupid to think it would. Your not smart enough for me to talk to any more"

    You were immediately pulled on that and ever since you've been avoiding having to admit to me and everyone else that you're wrong (again)

    Some times he might win( not to my knowledge but statistically IT MUST happen.) So this results in a dispute regarding parameters.
    So then we come to a range of descriptions chief among which is "instant cooling". Im not sure who has suggested this, but Im inclined to think this isnt possible due to convection(even if covered in say for example, a liquified gas) so again I disagree with this discription(who doesnt?)

    Banal

    Finally we come to the 2-5 minutes. I think I may disagree with that discription as I would assume thats varible depending on several factors: local atmospheric conditions, fan speed, type of vehicle, fuel used in said vehicle.

    Uh huh.

    Lets be honest here - you dont every know what you're arguing about anymore, you're just hoping that the rest of us will give up without you having to admit we were right.
