Broken wheel on bottom of heater. Need part to replace.

Usually,you can just remove the bottom cover of the vacuum and replacing the wheel is fairly self-explanatory. Just remove the broken one and position the new and close the bottom cover. Hope that helps

sure id think that any well stocked hardware store could help you select a replacement wheel

I did the drill think once. but today when trying to repair an old Lakewood 7101, I removed the two screws holding the front cover in place (top and bottom). the cover slides down and out. and underneath I see a large plug that can be unscrewed to drain or fill the heater!

Mike what I do if Knob pin that move the pilot pin down on gas vavle is broken there no replace part# for it. You got replace gas control valve at a tune of $180.00. What I've done for last 20 yrs is drill hole thru the knob at extach locate broken pin then place # 8 screw inhole with nut on bottom of knob and on top . Use the two nut adjust the length screw as need. Work good done it maybe 30 to 50 times.

That is definitely a very good guess. There are other possibilities (bad motor, etc) but that is the most likely by far.

look at theplate and see if it has a phone number u can call or go on line and try to find their website or jus go to where it was purchased and they can point u in the right direction

Yep, you'll need a direct replacment from the factory

$2 for a caster, $15 for the wheel kit.

The wheel could be stuck but you need to have the water drained out and a mixture of antifreeze to water added to it. Be sure to keep in mind the heater core also has fluid in it and you could damage that also.

If you look down by the gas pedal you will see two tubes coming out of the heater box, that is where the heater core is. To replace the heater core you need to disconnect the heater hoses from the heater core in the engine compartment. Then remove the gas pedal from the floor, and disconnect the brake booster rod from the brake pedal. Next you will need to disconnect the shaft going to the bottom of the steering column. (Make sure not to turn the steering wheel while the column is disconnected or you may damage the clock spring). After all of that is disconnected you will have to remove a cover for the heater core tubes. Then remove the tubes from the heater core. There are a couple of screws that hold the core in. Remove those screws and the heater core will slide out of the heater box.
This is not as difficult as it sounds. Just make sure and not turn the steering wheel, and top off the coolant when you get done.
Good Luck.
