I believe the heater core is leaking and the oily film you see on the windshield and on the floor vents is actually antifreeze. Don't know if the leak is small enough for STOP LEAK to stop it up, but it might be worth a try as a quick-fix.

Why does heat blow out defrost when set to floor?

When the heat is set to the floor, the defrost setting prioritizes blowing warm air onto the windshield and windows to prevent ice and fogging. In this mode, the system directs airflow primarily to the floor vents while also allowing some warm air to rise to the windshield, aiding in defrosting. This dual approach helps maintain visibility while delivering warmth to the cabin. If heat is blowing out of the defrost vents instead, it may indicate a malfunction in the climate control system.

To safely and effectively defrost bacon in the microwave, place the bacon on a microwave-safe plate and use the defrost setting or set the microwave to low power. Check and flip the bacon every 1-2 minutes until it is thawed. Avoid using high power to prevent cooking the bacon instead of just defrosting it.


Why Should you never defrost food at room.temperature?

You should never defrost food at room temperature because it increases the risk of bacterial growth. When food is left out, the outer layers can reach temperatures conducive to bacteria proliferation while the inside remains frozen. This can lead to foodborne illnesses. Instead, it's safer to defrost food in the refrigerator, in cold water, or in the microwave.


Can a piston shoot thought the hood of car?

Yes it can. Bullets may glance off the hood because the hood is sloped with respect to the flight path of the bullet, causing it to glance off instead of going through it. Same with the windshield; a bullet can go through it or bounce off.


Why does air blow through vents on the dash but not through the defrost vents on top when you switch the control?

When you switch the control to direct air through the dash vents, the HVAC system redirects airflow away from the defrost vents. The system uses a series of blend doors to control airflow direction, and if the defrost setting is not activated, those doors remain closed, preventing air from flowing through the defrost vents. Therefore, air is channeled exclusively to the dash vents instead.


1991 Chevy G20 van- Why won't airconditioning blow out of dash vents instead of defrost and heat vents?

I had a Chevy van of this vintage and I found a vacum hose leak in the controls that would make the heater/defrost door default too defrost open. lisining carefully under dash or under hood may pinpoint leak.
