I believe they are vacuum operated on those. ------------------ All Fords since 1977! '70 Mustang Mach 1 - '72 Mustang Sprint - '94 F-150 IP: Logged

MiraMesaStang Journeyman Posts: 2 From: San Diego Registered: Sep 2002	posted 09-12-2002 10:23 AM I can hear the swish of the vacuum and I do not hear the blower motot running again. I think the vacuum portion is working OK. IP: Logged

If the blower motor is easy to get to unplug it and apply 12V to check it. If it works on high speed only, it's probably the resistor. ------------------ -Charlie Ping 1970 Maverick Grabber [email protected] with AC and overdrive. http://www.maverickgrabber.com IP: Logged
