AC Fan Speed

Posted on July 15, 2014 at 10:07pm 1 Comment

Now that my girl has a new heater core and everything inside the dash looks good, I was wondering.....My AC is blowing cold air but noticed the Air Flow could be better. Does the Transducer control Fan Speed? Is my blower motor ready for replacement? I was also thinking of adding additional Radiator Cooling Fans to help the air flow through the condenser at idle.

Any opinions or options would be welcome.

Thanks

CLC "Self Starter Online" Log In Problems

Posted on July 15, 2014 at 9:59pm 4 Comments

Hi Guys and Gals,

Can anyone please tell me the proper procedure for logging onto the CLC websites Self Starter Online. My general user name and password does not work and the gentleman who is responsible for this has ignored several email requests. He replied to my first question by simply asking me if I've received the email on July 1st? I have replied back to him 4 times with no response. "No I Have Not Received That Email".

Thanks all.

Lou

64, 60 Special Heater Core Replacement.

Thank Heavens I've just finished it. What a nightmare.

Discovered the car had no heat while an attempt at a Thanksgiving Dinner at my wife's aunts house in Connecticut. No heat meant we used the 09 CTS4.

      I removed the 2 heater hoses from the fire wall and tried blowing through the core. Very little to no air or coolant came out. Also noticed that the previous owner had issues with the pipe that runs under the intake manifold to the 5/8" end of the core. It appears to have…

1964 Series 60 Special, No Heat, BRRRRR!

Posted on November 24, 2013 at 2:52pm 4 Comments

Hi all and Happy Thanksgiving.

Driving the Big Blue Girl the other day and noticed I am not getting any heat. Took the heater control valve out and got a little movement out of it when applying vacuum. Seemed a little corroded but not bad. With the hand held vacuum pump, {self bleeder}, I was blowing through the unit and it did open and close.

I put it back in and noticed not much to no vacuum coming from the red vacuum line to the top of the diaphragm whether on 65 or…

Thanks Louis!  Your 64 is a "looker" too. In fact you could have put almost any of our Caddy's in that view I found on the Blue Ridge Parkway and make a cover shot!

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?

Vintage Air AC

Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments

Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
