No pictures but I found a better solution to the blend air door problem on the 99 windstar. On mine I had the classic broken hinge so I drilled a hole up through the door ( in the all air go through the heater core position) and screwed it to the top with a wood screw #12 x 1" with a milwaukee 3/8 45 degree angle drill and 1/8" bit. In this position all air flows through the heater core. Now on to part two. We have too much heat. I added a universal water valve to the water line supplying the heater that is cable operated through the dash ( nostelgic air parts $48 including shipping for the cable and valve) drilling only holes through the dash and firewall.The cowl needs to be removed to install the valve. My heater now works great with a total cost of $51.98 plus tax(I also had to buy a radio removal tool from walmart for $3.99. The only downside is that for bi-level or reheat(Summer humid with AC on and condensation on winshield heater water valve must opened to dehumidify(parts manual heater control valve, heater control valve cable, and radio removeall tool). This solution works excellent and doesen't cost a lot. For the past 75 years heat has been regulated in car heaters with a water valve!!!!
