Debris is coming out of the interior vents is there like a cabin filter somewhere that debris will get stuck in

Thanks for watching and for your kind words.

Awesome glad my video helped you out!

Thanks for your support and enjoy your restoration.

Awesome!

Thats what its intended for! The process doesn't change. Happy my video helped you out!

o Lemurs yep. Gbodys were built for men.

Thanks for watching!

You are welcome!

Caprice is not the same as Gbody

78 El Camino had plastic inner wells. Its best to remove them to get to all of the bolts. Even with the engine out there are bolts behind the inner wells.

Could be many things. You can over fill the freon, the orfice tube could be plugged, compressor is going bad or blower motor is not working on full speeds. Dash vents not working properly. Blend door not opening correctly and so on.

Glad you like the channel and thanks for yoru message. All dash vents are vacuum controlled. The only relay is located under the hood near the blower motor for the high speed fan. The main vacuum lines for the vents are located under the hood and are hard plastic and look like wires. They are purple, gray and black. Make sure those are not damaged because it will cause the system not to work.

extensions and swivels or remove the inner well. Not sure what you mean by a damper on the bottom. I know there is a flapper door at the bottom for the drain.

I have a dash removal video in my Gbody How To play list but from a Cutlass however Monte and Cutlass are nearly identical when it comes to how the dash is mounted. Watch that video and you will be good to go.

Parts are over 30 years old so you just have to be careful.

Look at all vacuum lines for leaks.

Nothing for header installation. You may have to jack up the engine

If you are talking about the little off off the heater box door, it pulls out. I plan to do a video on the HVAC system.

Thanks!

Mine is the same way, it does defrost and floor. I know the vacuum lines on mine are totally disconnected but I can't find a diagram or anything showing how to put it back together properly.

+Iconf10 I can't find one either out has to be simple

nice suggestion I have the same problem

I can do that. I have had a few requests for this type of video. A common Gbody issue.

Thanks for watching and happy my videos have helped. In Ohio

No, the ground is to reduce static in your radio. If your fan isn't working then you have other wiring issues.

You need a harness from a 305 car. You might be able to get the V6 harness to work but some wires, namely the starter wires might be too short and battery cables on wrong sides depending on which side those components were on originally.

You need to check that the vent doors are moving inside your dash. Most likely vacuum operated so make sure they are getting proper vacuum and moving as they should. You can hear them moving as you slide the selector so make sure all is working first. You might have a mouse next up in there too. Just need to start taking things apart.

yeah

Just remove all the AC stuff under the hood and leave the box alone. The heat will still work.

awesome

Please follow the removal process in reverse. I don't have a car I am in the assembly process of an AC box.

Yeah that was my first car a 1983 Pontiac Grand Prix LJ I picked up in high school for about $600. I actually converted my manual AC car to a factory automatic AC setup from an older Grand Prix. I miss that car dearly man.

Vintage air

If you are local to norther ohio i can sell you one to be picked up.

Depends if it still has the AC/Heater box itself. If he removed it all then you need to buy it all and reinstall. I have all the part needed email me at classicgbodygarage@gmail.com

Yeah that is on my list of videos for 2017. A lot of common issues with the HVAC systems that can be solved easily. Thanks for the suggestion.

No Brian, Thank You.

I can do that at some point but need a cart to do this on.

I don't but make sure you use a durable spring compressor. Springs can be dangerous!

too large to ship

@@ClassicGBodyGarage oh no bro!...mine is dry rotted and broken!!!...where you located?

We spoke on the phone, Glad you got it.

Junkyard, local craigslist, join Classic Gbody Garage on Facebook and ask there. I know they have yards in your area based on our email conversation and your location. Don't expect to find a Gbody today but they are around. Just keep looking.

Yes except turbo cars a slightly different. but will fit.

clips most likely. You are talking about a NON AC car one in which I have never messed with. Please join my facebook page and ask there. The link is in the description or go to FaceBook and type in CLASSIC GBODY GARAGE

You can break it apart yes but why ruin it?

Classic G-Body Garage didn’t work & was Realy messed up. I broke it off piece by piece . Came out real nice , ordered the plate off jegs

The heater core can only be removed from the outside on a Gbody. Not sure about a 64 Impala.

Thanks for watching!

The arm fits into a slot in the to of the box so you have to pull it up through the slot. Turn the arm as you pull up and it will find the slot on its own and come out. I plan to do a video on this.

I have been meaning to make a video on vacuum controls and dash vents. So many people ask me about it. Hope to make one soon before it snows here.

Please join my facebook page and ask there as well. The link is in the description or go to FaceBook and type in CLASSIC GBODY GARAGE

just became a member today, but yes that would be ideal since I'm in Omaha

Door sil has screws. Plate bracket is not difficult. I am sure you can figure that one out if you haven't already. Thanks for the comment!

Gbody AC/Heat harnesses are the same through out the years the Engine harness is different by year and by engine type for the most part especially in the later years where GM ties the AC into the computer

So I could get a harness from a b body caprice?

sorry i mean the harnesses are the same amoung like cars, Gbody to Gbody and Bbody to Bbody and so on.

Oh I see so I cant really jump from gbody to bbody harness

If you never want to use your heat again sure.

You will have to pull the dash and gut the temp sensor equipment and swap it out with the manual set up. It can be done but with some work for sure. Finding a car in the yard is best so you can see exactly what you need.

I have your "C-60" Option here to already do that ... (or to "see" exactly). I think ("I hope") the only difference to be the "Programmer" (and it's removal), to THEN attach that heat door pivot (the one broken in your clip) and THEN "plug-n-play" the rest. The only unknown: IF the "BOX" is different ... It SHOULD (I hope) be "fashioned" the same, as the only difference may be the "vacuum rotary selector valve" instead of being motor / programmer driven, will THEN BE MANUALLY "selected" / or "driven. I just bought two more of the "A" Bodied Regal's, and BOTH were the reliable "C-60" as you have (again) HERE. Fortunately, their still are many here in MI. THANKS !!

Maybe 30lbs

join classic gbody garage on facebook and ask there.

is not

x-2! I still need a heater, but don't want the ac stuff

Scott Curry your going to have to remove it all . re-install the air conditioning..that will involve removing the refrigerant and replacing it,

Scott Curry sorry I mean that for the other comment here, same idea though for you .gotta remove it all then re-install the heter core luckily that is easier than re-installing the air conditioning

William Seemann your going to have to remove it all . re-install the air conditioning..that will involve removing the refrigerant and replacing it.. if you have no experience with a/c system do your research and if you have the money to buy or rent the specialty tools like the gauges hoses and vaccum pump and intermediate level mechanic can do it .my tip with ac systems is take everything apart clean it with a pressure washer make sure everything is DRY !!! any mostire will givr you problems.re -assemble with NEW lubed o-rings and you should have nice cold air for years ...there are great videos by Eric the car guy, scannerdanner, chrisfix ect.. good luck

Remove it but a heat only with blowers like what they use in limousines I work at a limo shop and this is how I'm going to do my malibu

It could be a few things with your blower motor. Plugs under the hood that lead to the blower motor and relay corrode and go bad or your dash switch is bad. Not sure what you mean by air blowing out of the box.

I mean when the car is running and the heater is on, if I pop the hood and put my hand above the AC heater box, I can feel hot air blowing out pretty hard.

You need a NON AC box that has heat only.

because you lost the vacuum source to the vents. Find the broken vacuum lines and repair.

Plates are available

Yeah I have it. Email me at classicgbodygarage@gmail.com

Make sure your vent switch is making a hissing sound when you move it so you know the controls are getting vacuum first.

Yup it is

Marion Walker then you have a stuck vent inside the dash or the selector is not distributing vacuum to that vent servo. You will need to pull the selector out and find out if vacuum is getting to each servo when you move the selector.

Classic G-Body Garage what's this vacuum looking thing b hind the gloves box to the right toward the fender

ask someone to help who has smaller hands. Its possible to get in there if you got the old one out.

Cut an access in the inner fender.

Yes, email me at classicgbodygarage@gmail.com

Heater box is most likely fine, its the gasket that seals the box to the firewall.

Or the flap on bottom of box in engine compartment

The job is similar

Heater core to the engine.

@@ClassicGBodyGarage ok . What does it mean when choke light is on

yeah totally possible

You can reinstall the system. Just undo what someone else put there.

I appreciate the suggestion however each Gbody based on year and engine type is different. Now if you are referring to the vacuum lines that run the AC system dash vents, I do have plans for that. Thanks again and for watching.

Classic G-Body Garage great channel and i appriciate all the knowledge given, my wife just gifted me with a 86 cutlass salon. Something i have been wating for years but there are somthing i need to do and reading the vacuum line diagrams been ah rough start haha but i love the channel great work and will be looking out for the Ac vacuum line video your gonna do thank u

Awesome gift and awesome wife! She's a keeper! Let me know if you have any more questions but yes follow the diagram the best you can. I know they can be hard to follow.

I watched and commented on your video.

Cedric Bailey olds7980@yahoo.com

Yep, scrapped the car with the full set on it. They were in nice shape too! No, I pulled them off. Thanks for watching.

if you live close you can. I am in ohio.

Haha I appreciate that but I'm all the way in Connecticut!

Big blocks fit into a Gbody no problem. You just need to watch what valve covers you run.
