after cleaning the control everything works now.

Are you getting vacuum from the black hose at the control head when the engine is running? If not then nothing will work. i am it seems that the tan port gets no vacuum everything else works,i watched a youtube video of taking the control apart and cleaning it,i did that today going to put it back ...

yep they stay open on all settings,im taking apart the selector now to check for maybe a plugged port.it sure seems like the door would close on the recirculating setting.as usual thank you for help in this.

yes i believe so its the one that on the control (color wheel) is tan then splits into two greens drivers and passenger side,they stay open at all times but close if i use a vac pump on the tan input hose.

i was wondering when the ac is on should the heater door vacuum actuator close the heater door? i changed the actuator but it stays open,there is no vacuum signal to it on any setting,everything else works correctly but the heater door.

thank you sir as always.

can this be done with the window in place?i replaced them once and how i did it escapes me.they were repops

on the landau not sure if they are called beltline seals or exterior window scrapers.the exterior door window seals mine have gotten hard and the power windows are having a hard time over coming the friction plus one side is missing a section.My main question is i cant remember how i changed these t...

as far as the fuel cooler id like to add, that everything is so condensed on our cars where would you put it that would not be subjected to the same heat.

at this point iv begun to realize the tank is being heated up by the engine heat,iv looked for coolers but didn't find anything that i thought was promising.the fuel pressure regulator definitely helped but not an end all ,if you live in cooler temps probably would not have this problem but down her...

drove the car on a four hour trip about a month ago in 100 degree plus weather,while the regulator by the tank did help(took much longer to heat the tank up)it still was percolating the fuel.so my next step is to insulate the tank from exhaust heat.i bought a foil product for radiant heat purposes s...

ran it today and it is definitely promising,no hissing coming out of the tank we shall see on a long trip hopefully this weekend.

so after much messing around checking for return line restrictions and such,i found a company that said they experienced the same thing i have fuel getting to hot.On a 100 degree day with the ac running the fuel tank gets incredibly hot and starts pushing fumes out of the fuel tank cap,they stated t...

ill have to look at those more closely,thanks.

pardon my ignorance but what does a pwm stand for?
