I ran my 91 GL with out the air cond. ducts for a few weeks until I =
got
around to the recall. I found that the bus cooled down faster with =
out the
ductwork. My theory is that the duct work & small vents just =
slow the
air too much. I think the late model Westy's have it right, with =
all of
the air coming out of the back. The air exits just forward of the =
rear
seat so the passengers don't get blasted.

This would =
work.
Actually my dream setup would be to cut a hole in the duct =
work that
is built into the body on the driver's side (behind that wooden =
trim that
supports the rear light over the cabinets) and then force the cool =
air up
to the front of the van through these already exsisting ducts (used
normally for fresh air on non-westies), through the doors, into =
the dash
somehow and out the front dash vents. Then you could close =
the rear
vents
tottally when no one is back there and you would probably =
get a good
bit of
A/C air out of the front vents. Still dreaming, but =
it could
work!!!
