The only way I know is to remove the = whole unit and put new sealing foam tape on it. It is not a fast job at = all. One needs real patience. There are a few things involved in the = work. But it is mostly simple and obvious only take some time. But once = it's done it will last for a long time.

Subject: vent flaps on 87 won't = seal

I have a problem = with the fresh air, windshield ventilation flaps on our 87 Westy. The = flaps won't seal off the air when the control lever is fully in the closed = position. I've readjusted the ventilation cable conduit at the clamp so that the = cable is in the fully closed position just before the lever hits the side of = the lever control unit cover plate. Nevertheless, fresh air still = leaks in through the windshield vents. Any ideas on how to fix this = without removing the dash and opening up the heater/ventilation flap housing?
