Only cold air comes out the center vents before about 2000 -- the vents
are shut off in heat mode.

Yeah, but it costs as much as a new servo.
Honestly, I feared the things
I have a line on a dude that will rebuild your servo for around $200 I
believe if anybody is interested.

Next question: what internal bits are replaced as part of the rebuild?

Kaleb,
I completely dismantle the units, clean, examine,evaluate and
ultimately replace all worn components...I also effect specific
modifications to the main bakelite housing which greatly reduce the
potential for future leaks and

The problem with rebuilding the original plastic servos is that they may
work perfectly right - up until they crack - AND they will crack -
usually sooner rather

On my 83' 300D, I've heard so many stories about the climate control not
working that I have a hard time telling whether mine is working or not.
This center vent thing kind of answers a potential question, though I'm not
sure I ever got much out of them in the summer either...
It *generally* seems
OK, that actually makes sense. Though generally I'm just looking for less
heat out of the upper center vents as opposed to cold air when I have the
heater on...

3) Leaking vacuum pods and/or

That's a FEATURE - not a flaw. Only air at outside temps or cooled air
are supposed to come out of the center dash vents! It was designed that way!

The center vents are designed to distribute cooled air or air at outside
temperatures! That's their purpose. If you don't want cooled or
any ideas on why they would design it that way? Does that apply for 124?
