This is so easy.- Turn on the master switch, turn on the pitot/fuel vent 
heat switch now take about 2 minutes then put your lips on the vents like y
ou were to suck a straw.- Be sure to do this before you suck on the pitot
 tube.- Otherwise your lips will be burned so bad you will never be able 
to feel the slight warmth from the vent.- If you really do this you deser
ve what you get.- In all seriousness, my vents are always quite warm to t
he touch in about 30 seconds after turning on the heat switch.- I serious
ly doubt that airframes of this vintage and size have load shedding.- In 
the 1960's I don't think Boeing or Douglas was using auto load shedding.-
 I think it was called a flight engineer.- CHECK ESSENTIAL!!!
