mine was '82, last year of air cooling, you don't even know what bad fuel economy is till you're driving your son's hockey team up to the civic center in Portland, ME when it's 30 below zero and the gas heater is cranked. 50, maybe 60 miles to a tank, bad enuf to carry a couple 5 gallon cans spare.

blower motor had an annoying tick at low speed (the speed where I run it the most) so I ordered an inexpensive replacement and swapped it out. 3 T25 torx screws and 1 electrical connector to unplug. Easy access under the pass side dash. The whole thing took maybe 10 minutes start to finish.

I wish I knew how easy so much of this stuff was to DIY it back in the day. I would have saved a lot of money. Seriously, 3 screws and an electrical connector....new blower sounds much better!
