Hey Guys,
I'm trying to get some air to blow into the passenger compartment (76 with AC).
The fan motor is blowing at 3 different speeds. I've removed the lower right dash and the duct work.
This door opens and closes and there is some air coming in. It's not very strong and when I attach the duct it dissapates to where you can't really feel it.
I guess there is blockage somewhere, any idea what I should look for?
May have found the problem. the lower edge of the heater box is covered in silicone, no bolt. There's got to be an air leak there.
Not sure I want to pull the box now.

Does that door open and close, what does that? Just for my own edification... thanks, it must operate differently than a '72..... Can you fit your hand down there, it might be full of leaves or something?
the cable on top pulls it shut when I switch to defrost. I ran a vacuum hose as far as I could from both ends and didn't find anything.
I'm thinking heater box gasket now. With the silicone and mis-matched bolts I'm kinda scared it wont be able to get it back together.
BTW Kansas, I just saw your post for the LED instrument lights and ordered a set. Can't wait to get them in.
