Re: Any tips to get more air from blower motor?

nothing like churning up an old thread

I wanted to check this piece for the longest time when I first read this thread. My vent output was fine in the morning mostly because it wasnt hot outside yet.. but in the middle of the day, it didnt feel the same... Just like other members noted, that on A/C Max there should be no air on the floor vent, and I had some going there ... well finally spent a few minutes after work and removed the glove box, and the a/c ducting and found my plastic tab broken. Cheap looking thing... anyway I forgot to grab a pair of pliers from my tool box at work so I cant pull that dang pin out... I already stabbed myself by trying to press that pin out with a flat blade... I even thought.. man I'm going to stab myself.. and I did... sob.

Well I called GM and spent about 5 minutes on the phone with the dude and hes like yeah I got something that sounds like what you need. I was like sweet... For those who are interested in saving the next counterman the hassel, heres the part number:

3018715 connector group 9.786 list 2.39

Tomarrow I will remove and install the new connector/tab piece and seal up the ducting with the butyl tape. Its wicked good sticky stuff when its heated and makes water tight seals. Good enough for my truck
