    Is it giving you an error message? I've run into problems where the picture was too big & had to knock the resolution down to meet the forum size limit (not sure what that is either, I just kept knocking them down until it uploads). 

    No Message, just not uploading, will try knocking down the size. 

  2. Thank you for all the replies. A shutoff valve has been placed inline on the 5/8” hose off the manifold. No leaks. No warm air. AC is back to cooling the cabin as designed. 
    On to Carlisle !

    When I had my AC hooked up back in 2012 I had the same problem with heat coming in thru the heater vents  Could never find out how to fix it so I had a valve put in the heater hose that I have to manually turn off in the summer or my AC does not cool off the car at all.

    Can you show a photo of that setup?

    A/c cars with a heater control valve should not have any warm air coming out the vents. 

    My 72 has nothing on the hoses or the manifold. TY for your replies.

    Didn’t all these cars have “some” warm air coming from the vents with everything off? My chevelle does it also with no a/c. 

    My 70, no. My 72, yes. It’s a mystery to me at this point

    None of my '72s (three of them) ever had that valve. I think it's done in the HVAC box with the blend doors, as far as choosing heat or cool air.

    Yup, my 2nd 72, not on either one of them.

     I am getting warm air through the vents of the 72. Heater door opens and closes properly, temp control lever works. Wondering if this setup on the 72 would fix that

    Not 💯 on the 72. Has to have something though. 

    Here is a pic of "barn find" 71 402

    My 70, which I’ve picked up recently are the pictures in the original post. My 72 has nothing inline on the hoses. The overarching issue is that I am getting warm air through the vents of the 72. Heater door opens and closes properly, temp control lever works. Wondering if this setup on the 72 would fix that

  9. Looking to replace the Fuel Tank Sending unit in my 72. Anyway to tell from the Engine Compartment if the car has the 3/8' line with no return, or if it has the 3/8' line with the 1/4" return? It is a Van Nuys Car.

    Hey I have a 1970 Monte Carlo and need a tilt wheel will a 1970 Chevelle tilt wheel steering column be a direct bolt in interchange and both are column shift thanks

    I am thinking of doing the same on my 70. Did you find a column that matches the interior color?

    I haven’t read the article yet but I did see the valuation section. I don’t think the values are right for the current market. The “high” values don’t seem to reflect what cars are actually selling for.

    Aaron, that may be reflective of the timeframe of when the article was done. Rob and Sam may be able to let us know how long ago that was.
