those darned climate control dampers (5k)

[kmorris@mail.sover.net]

A longtime lurker with a question:

On my '86 5ks, about 90% of the air is coming out of the side window 
defrost vents at the corners of the dash.  I seem to remember some 
posts in the past about getting behind the dashboard and manually 
adjusting the dampers to correct this. 

Is this procedure something that a mechanically-impaired person such 
as myself, armed only with a Haynes manual, should attempt?

Any suggestions?

Thanks much!
