Replace the monovalve (no repair kit for these, you have to swap the
whole thing). This fixed that exact problem on mine this week. It
will get worse, you will eventually not get enough heat to defrost
the windshield!

Inadequate sleep is related to weight gain, ADD symptoms, and
narcolepsy. With sleep apnea, one doesn't in fact sleep well at
