'87 4kq: A/C: good as it gets?

[Richard J. Andrews]

no, no, no, the center vents are the cooler vents with a/c on. because with
the ac on the recirc flap closes and the air
coming from the center vents is blown through the evaporator.

so to clarify with a/c off center vents are fresh air, with a/c on center
vents are cooler on the 4000 series at least

HTH!
