It sounds like your heater valve isn't fully closing.Located above the spare
tyre which you will have to remove to get access.
It should be a matter of adjusting the heater cable at the heater valve.
Hope this helps

Subject: Vanagon leaks heat...

    I have had a problem with my 1984 Westy leaking heat
out of the vents.

    I have all of the controls set to off...   But, some
heat still escapes.  It is not a big problem in the winter,
but in the summer it can be unbearable in 90 degree
temperatures. Also,

    Has anyone had a similar problem or know of a
solution.  Could it be as easy as just adjusting the flaps
or replacing a seal?  I have been busy fixing other
pressing problems till now, but I would like to fix it
before warm weather sets in.

TIA,

Mike B
'84 Westy "Sunshine"
