Subject:replacement of fresh air fan
From:Dan Erlandson
Date:Mon, 19 Aug 2002 18:27:57 -0400

Well last spring  the fresh air fan was shot and smoking so I pulled out the
dashboard on the 91 GL this afternoon and got the fresh air fan out (tough
going on breaking apart those 18 plastic "welds".  My replacement from VW
didn't come with any "weatherstripping" so I was going to head to Home Depot
and look at what they had that I could use.  Additionally I noticed that
alot of the flaps in the heater/freah air  box have deteriorated foam seals.
The seal looks like the foam stuff they use at times as an air conditioner
filter.  Thought I might try to glue some into place and get the best
possible seal I could.  Any experience in this area?  Any help would be
appreciated.
