On the way back from Florida, the temp dropped and the heater quit working. In addition, there was this really bad draft that we couldn't find but the wife had a blanket around her legs and feet and a hoodie and coat on. Shocked Shocked

I've been looking and was not able to find the source for the air infiltration but think today was the day. Started the coach with the engine cover on and happened to be on the floor and felt a huge draft coming from the front of the engine cover. Turns out there is a 3' wide 1/4" wide gap. You can't really see it because the channel is "C" shaped but it's there. At engine start when the fan runs, you can feel a draft. A little self stick weatherstrip seems to have solved the problem....I hope!
