Re: AC and heat blows through windshield ports, not lower ones?

You might also want to look at the vacuum canister (ball) on the right subframe rail just below the AC accumulator and slightly rearward of it. The plastic nipple on the ball can crack fairly easily and the ball can split at the seam after a few thousand heat/cool cycles. Heating after startup can open a cracked seam and cause loss of vacuum.
