Title: Heater control question
Post by: blown motor on September 20, 2024, 03:35:24 PM
How many inches of vacuum is there supposed to be on the vacuum supply line that goes from the carb to the heater control? I have 14 but my heater controls don't work right.
74 Challenger.

The heater control draws vacuum from a fitting on the back of the intake manifold, not the carb

in my '73 service manual they say 8-inches of vacuum to test operation of the A/C controls and shouldn't drop more than 3/4 of an inch when a function is selected but should return to 8-inches.

Yes you're correct. My slip up.

The link is good for service manuals. Lots of good info.
I am glad you got it figured out.
