I have never done the cable adjustment.
I have never had much faith in the underhood heat control. Even though I
have replaced mine at least once.
My air hasn't worked for 2 years. Serpentine should fix that. I have to swap
Monte transmissions first. I now have all the rubber parts for all the seals
and filters for the one in the garage. I might get a look at it today.......
probably not till next week though.
