Solenoids in the climate control box are shot. They are the same as late
80s early 90s GM large cars (Cad/olds/buick) and a trip to a junkyard
should yield many - you have to remove and replace the actual solenoids,
the box is different. Also check the hoses and the little filter in the cc
box itself - betcha the filter is split or one of the hoses is off.
Common problem, if it is any consolation . . .
