Best Answer

If your problem is that the cold air stops blowing out the AC vents and transfer to the defrost or the heater vents, I have had this on my 99 Astro. There is a small vacuum line that runs from the Drive Side Valve Cover near the front across the front of the engine over the Air Conditioning components. If this line gets cracked or broken, when you are going up hill and the engine requires more vacuum for fuel there isn't enough vacuum to keep the Air blowing out the AC vents. Check the line for cracks or broken areas.
