FIGURE 1 - AIR LEAK AREA:




Some 1986-1987 Cimarrons may experience a condition of cold air blowing into the passenger side foot area when the A/C system is on. This condition may be the result of an air leak from the joint between the heater cover case and evaporator case. The leak is generally located toward the front of the vehicle where the A/C module meets the front of dash as shown in Figure 1. To repair this condition apply 3M strip caulk or equivalent to the case joint area where air leakage is found.
