Subject:      '81 Heater control cable question
Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII

Hi all:


It appears that the woven steel-wire cable which connects to my right
heater control flap is stretched; at least it looks that way, though that
doesn't seem possible.


The manual is not at all clear on how the two control cables eventually
connect up to the control lever.  Do they meet somewhere and connect to
one cable that runs up to the control lever, or do both somehow attach
directly to the lever?


The manual also says the way to get the trim plate covering the levers
off is to "ply with a screwdriver."  Do I need to remove the instrument
cluster to work on the cable/lever connections after "plying?"
