Just to make sure no rock is unturned .... did you turn the Guidematic control to the "off" position? To turn off rotate the sensitivity control knob (Fig 12-99 in shop manual) all the way to the left to the Off position. The dimmer switch should then operate as a manual switch. This might sound like a silly question but have hear at least 2 occasions over the years where the owner was simply not turning the switch far enough to the left to the off position which opens a circuit to the guidematic system.

I think you have to use the same type dimmer switch. That is if you have guidematic, you need to use the guidematic switch with side connector or bypass everything. If you need one, I have Very Good used ones for $5 + s/h. Shoot me an email to jasonedge@nc.rr.com

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

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

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!

Who rebuilds original AC accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year , There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A What is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks
