A/C vacuum actuators
I got the cowl actuator and kick vent actuators in front of me and they look identical but the good ole LMC catalog shows they are different with a $20 price difference. Anyone know if they are the same?

Re: A/C vacuum actuators
I maybe wrong on this but one uses vacuum to open and the other uses it to close if I'm not mistaken. but yea they look pretty much the same. Some one else I'm sure will know for sure though.

Re: A/C vacuum actuators
The two vacuum actuators are different. The AC cowl door actuator has the mounting studs parallel with the flat link. The kick panel door actuator has studs 45 degrees from the flat.
Also, I believe the replacement actuator for the AC cowl door has a return spring in it. Jim
