Wild Vacuum Experience

I knew there was a vacuum problem when I could only get air from the defrost vents and I could hear a leak when I hit the A/C button.

The MityVac told me the leak was at the recirc actuator. I pull the glove box and see that two of the tabs on the pod have come loose and the thing is half open, like a plastic easter egg! I click the thing back together and everything works fine. Weird....I haven't done any work in that area in a couple years.

Good to hear it was an easy fix. That's a lot easier than having to pull the actuator out.
