So, I replaced my blower motor today and the blower is working. There's still a problem though. The air inside the cab is pretty weak even on the 4th setting. Anyone know what could be causing the prob? The blower motor seems to be blowing fine.

replace cabin filter if not done in past 20,000 miles. may be reason for blower motor failure. check archives on how to.

How long does it take? Surely it couldnt be worse than installing a used blower motor. That's like putting a square peg in a round hole! I'm really trying to do most everything myself if I can...

Here is one link to repair. Should take about 1 hour or so.

Well, I managed to get the old filter out okay. Geez, was it nasty... Mildewed all to hell. I'm picking up the new filter in the morning. The filter was defintately the prolem though. With no filter in, it's blasting to the max. Now I just need a freon recharge and Im good to go. Thanks for all the help guys!!!!:D
