Ford Escort Wagon - 1997 - just under 80k on the odometer.

OK - I know it is the blower motor. Fairly certain I can replace it if only I can find it. I just don't want to spend $20 on a manual since the plan is to sell the car in the near future.

Ah, yep. That is exactly where it was. It's 90+ degrees here today in Texas and I have a family drive tomorrow. AC is required.

MANY THANKS!!!
