That Guy
Still working on it
To update this... Too much going on in life, so I'm behind working on the Blazer.
Rear floor boards... will get fixed this weekend. Got the sheetmetal, now to to put it in.
Defroster... Turns out 2 things were wrong.
1) The Diverter Valve Link Connector (Plastic piece in previous pictures) broken, which does not allow all the air to flow directly through the vents. Basically half the air being push by the motor was escaping into the floorboard.
2) Defroster Vacuum Actuator was broken, which is attached to the a/c vent under the radio. This valve allows the actuator arm to lower, thus forcing the air up into the defroster vent.
Windshield Wipers not parking... Going to try a new Wiper Motor. Pretty sure the current motor is the original from 87, so if it doesn't work to fix the problem at least I know the motor is new.
Back-up Lights not working... thanks to K85 Octane... Connector on the Neutral/Safety Back-up Switch not fully seated. Fixed and working perfectly now.
Power door locks... Maybe I'll get to them this weekend. Low on the priority list as they are not required to pass inspection.
Sticker on D/S vent window... Razor blade and 10 seconds of my life fixed this, but I did save $23 from having the shop do it. Still cracks me up thinking about it.
Headlight aiming... Found the official Virginia requirements. Will use the tape measure to back away from my garage door the right distance to get the right aim.
Some AWESOME help in here folks. Really Appreciate it.
