'85 900 8-valve...
I've done a bit of of checking here and there...replaced a few vacuum hoses but so far no dice. What happens is the middle vents will blow air until I accelerate in gear. Under acceleration, it behaves like the door closes that allows air to these mid vents. When I decelerate, the air comes back. The fan is still blowing, as the side vents continue to work.
Mind you, this only happens when the car is in gear and accelerating. When I'm stopped and slowly rev the car with it out of gear, the vents continue to blow unabated.
Anyone have this happen and can say, "Oh yeah, its the snaglefriggetz." Since it only happens when the car is in gear has me stumped - since I can't test the darn vacuum pieces while I'm driving. <<grin>>
TIA! (Love my car more now that someone gave me a bag of R-12 cans and my A/C is a happy puppy once more).
