heat/ac only blowing out defrost vents, no matter what I set it on. Good heat/ac but just not changing from defrost?

The air flow is operated by engine vacuum. Check to make sure there are no vacuum leaks between the engine and interior as well as to the vent doors it operates.

When checking under the dash, start the engine. If you are lucky, you may hear a hissing sound indicating a leak.
