I cut several vacuum lines in front of the heater box while replacing my heater core and haven't had any dash functionality since. I'm in the process of trying to revive my air conditioning and wanted to make sure I could get the air blowing from the dash vents before I spend a ton of money.

In ...

Anybody? I really need to get this vent situation sorted out...

I'm looking to locate the vent blend door or doors in my '94 Lesabre with Dual Zone ECC. I'm looking to, if possible, rig them to manually select the dash vents to get the A/C that soon may be fixed to blow on my face instead of the windshield. Pictures or service diagrams would be especially ...

Agreed on rolling along with what you have unless it's actively giving you problems, engine-wise. Transmission may be another story. Replacing that has been creeping into my mind for a while as I just passed 150K miles.

I say find out from your local Transmission place what a rebuild will cost you ...

Where are those prices from? Advance Auto's website lists both racks at $71.99 from Cardone.

I really think that just solved it for me, thank you! That's definitely not how I put mine in :banghead: I think I just sat my thermostat right on top of the gasket (like the old O-ring was) and hoped it sealed. It isn't haha, so thank you!

Also, I've seen differing things about, when the ...

Anyone?

Even just an overly dramatic explanation of exactly how yours sat in and went back together would help. I've tried three (3) new thermostats since this began happening and they all produced low temps, so it must be something I did wrong with the gasket thingy...

...of your thermostat?

Or at least a description of how you seated it into the gasket in your car?

I haven't been around the forums much in a while, but I've had this low operating temp problem for at least a couple years now. The car takes FOREVER to begin to heat up, and then runs dead in the ...

Got it! Thanks for the advice and links. The vac stuff wound up breaking, so I've got no dash vents for the moment, but since my ECC wont channel heat to the dash anyway it's not a big issue.

Thanks again, folks!

Ok, I can't figure out for the life of me how the vac fitting comes off the box beside the core cover. I know that box has to move to give room for the heater core cover to come off but I just can't figure out how...

Anybody?

Thanks for those links folks, I'm gonna dive into this today and see about getting it done...

I have ECC. I've read also about grounding the core, I'm assuming I can just run a bit of insulated wire from somewhere on the core to a screw on the chassis?

Hey guys, so I'm planning on replacing my busted heater core soon, so I went out today to dig under the dash to get a feel for things and I'm a bit puzzled to say the least. :dontknow:

I've done a bunch of searching here and on other pages, and found a lot of rather inspecific "take the glovebox ...

How's it goin', Bonne' crew!? It's been too long!

I haven't posted much since I finished my Top End gasket job early this spring, but i've decided to really put my mind to solving my long-standing rough idle/OD shudder issue. As a couple of you guys know, i've had my share of "issues" with my car's ...

Cool, so i guess that means that my brakes aren't just gonna stop working tomorrow if i drive it? Brake pedal feel hasn't changed, and they function fine.

If that sensor's dead, do i basically have to replace the master cylinder to fix it?

For the past several days, less than a week, i've had my Brake warning light pop on with the chime going off each time i've driven my car. I looked in my Owner's Manual for a specific explanation of what it means, but it just says to have the car serviced.

The light has been intermittent. It's not ...

Hey hey, good to be back, thanks to school and music, i haven't posted much lately. How ya'll are? :beerchug:

So, yea...last time i posted around here, i had just suffered an overheating problem, and have since torn the engine down the top of the block and replaced all top end gaskets, including ...

Have you looked at the icm to see if its dirty or corroded? Also a broken spring on the rocker of the misfiring cylinder could cause it, had same pproblem with wifes explorer and turned out to be a broken spring under the rocker, just have to pull off the valve cover gasket to check.

I don't ...

ha, yea i got all the injectors connected correctly...took plenty of pictures before i dove in :bhuh:

i just went and played with the injector pigtails. the engine responds negatively when any of the 6 are unplugged, so it seems the injectors are, for the most part, functioning. i'll go out again ...

i tested for spark at the coils, and all seemed uniform. i tested the spark at the ends of the plug wires, and a couple looked weak so i replaced them.

brand new Autolite wires are on the car, slight improvement in idle quality but it still sounds like it's down a cylinder. i tried pulling the ...
