fresh air ducts?

[TomoHawk]

Oh- I fixed it. Ihad the flash different.

I was just playing.

So how does the fresh air get to the lower side vents?

[sblake01]

I'm thinking through the cowl vent as I can't seem to find anywhere else on my car where it could get in from.

[sblake01]

TomoHawk, here's a better picture of that control I was asking about. My car doesn't have it although the scan comes from my owners manual. There's no spot for it in my car so I know that it didn't get removed somewhere prior to my ownership. Must be in cars with factory air and mine has dealer instaled air.

[TomoHawk]

Great scan! the description really helps too. Now that I know exactly what you are talking about, I can look for it myself, or keep an eye out for it when I'm working under there.

ADD: By golly, my owner's manual has ther vent control too (p. 10) just like yours. If you look at pg. 31, the top-middle picture shows the air flow patterns, and you'll see that the air to the floor vent comes from the cowl intake.

thx

Check post #16 as I have added an attachment showing the ventilation system for a 78. We also talked about that earlier in this thread.

[TomoHawk]

That's what I was referring to.

[sblake01]

The floor vent control? That's on page 36. We're looking at the same manual.

[TomoHawk]

Right, pg. 36. I don't have that control either.

Without a picture, I can't tell what part that refers to. Maybe the vent 'eyeballs,' or the tubes.
