Re: [DML] Re: Window & Blower Question




Thanks everybody.. I am guessing it is the track because it want's to go 
down but looks stuck. Ken had changed out the regulators and virtually 
everyother part imaginable. As for the blower, I will have to check and see 
what circuit breaker it has in it. I know the car had the fanzilla upgrade 
but I don't know about the blower motor. The throttle cable was done 
properly (even had antifreeze leak out when I removed the old one) the break 
was about 1/2 inch from the ball end that sits in the clip attached to the 
pedal. Looks like regular wear & tear. Thanks for all the help.. I already 
have started using oil filters from the six pack I ordered when I first got 
the car.

Gotta check with Rob about the rivet thing..
