Yup, What Jake says.  I just wiggled all the levers on the spare '85
heater in the carport and that's exactly what happens.

Top lever moves only the defrost doors.
2nd lever is the water control valve
3rd is floor vent doors only.
4th is the big honkin' door that connects to the body to feed the rear
passenger vents.
