AC goes into defrost mode when accelerating
It's been a while since I've been in here, so hope everyone is well. I've noticed that when I have the HVAC blower on and set to blow through the dashboard registers, then push the throttle down to accelerate (up a hill or away from a stop), the blower door will divert the airflow to the windshield. This says to me that I'm losing vacuum when I accelerate but don't know where to look. I just replaced all the vacuum lines abt 6 months ago due to tranny fluid contamination, so normal wear shouldn't be the reason. Any thoughts or experience in dealing with this? Thanks in advance for your help!
Added 9/18/06: This only happens when it is in blower mode. When the air conditioner is on, it blows normally no matter what I do to the throttle. Any ideas?
