    What is the "Electro Fan" for? (I do not know if this is 328 specific or applies for 308 as well.). I only just noticed this while routing my battery tender line through the front fender.

    Also, any clues on how to change the Electro Fan filter? It looks like it's made of horse hair. Mine is definitely original and has never been cleaned/changed. It's tucked up way underneath the left headlight assembly. Pictures of steps are much appreciated.

    Heater/defroster fans. That design is 328 only. Both located under left headlight. Easy to get to by removing panel under car.

    The intake piece is easily removed with I think 3 screws so the filters can be removed and cleaned. They are some nature of material that can be had washed with soap and water then air dried prior to reinstallation.

    Check the hoses. Especially the one to the right side. They are usually disintegrating. Hard to find a hose long enough for the right side.
    I make a tube out of sheet metal, pop rivet it together then mount it to the panel in front on the battery to act as a splice for 2 hoses. It also holds it where it belongs. Picture is out of focus but here it is.
