Chuck,
Been counting and I think there are 5 on all my cars.
Two in the console, one above your left knee when driving and one for the recirc flap. Plus the heater that makes 5.
Wally P lists them all in his HVAC writeup - I will check it.
I have some samples of the larger diaphragm - I need a couple of volunteers to try them out in anger and report back.
Any one need to change a large vac pot?

Hey Roger,

my recirculation flap is in need of a new diaphragm.
I'm ready to do it as soon as my car comes back with the new compressor.

I'll take a truck load, do them all while I'm at it and be done with it for another 19 years

I only have two spares - one for Champagne and one for NickT.
Nick PM me your address please.

NickT 07-14-2006 10:05 PM

PM sent.. It will be wonderful if these things work... Fingers crossed.

This couldn't be better timing. I just pulled my console and 4 outa 5 vacuum lines failed so I'm about the start the repair process. Please keep me/us informed. I can take what ever sizes are necessary and do a test tomorrow.

Thanks

Any update on whether these work or not?

Thanks

Oh Man! I just replaced all of mine, and it wasn't cheap. :banghead: Hope they're still around in 18 years.

ROG100 07-18-2006 12:31 AM

They are in the mail en-route to Nick and Paul.
We will have to wait and see.
I am trying one on one of my cars - should know something tomorrow.

Part ACD#2010 on the Autolux site fits the Recirculation Flap Pt No 928 573 077 04.
The complete assembly is currently $20 and the diaphragm from Autolux is $5.30.

The Defrost Flap diaphragm is slightly longer than the above part, however I will see if it fits and works.

The Center Vent and Defroster flap diaphragms are smaller and Jack is possibly going to make them. I will be sending him some old complete actuators for him to work on.

ROG100 07-18-2006 02:14 PM

The Autolux part in the last post does not fit the Defroster Flap.

The "heavy hitters" price wise are the two small actuators (Center & Footwell) at $80 and $64 each respectivly. However as you only need the diaphragm purchase the cheaper unit for this as they are both the same.

I think you can pretty safely assure him that there will be a market for them if he does. I know I'd be buying.

GT Jackson 07-18-2006 06:47 PM

Roger, many thanks. I will begin the process and place orders where I can. There might also be a market for rebuilt using the core in exchange, saving some the hassle of ear down.
