[DeTomaso] Heater fresh air control cable hookup?

[jderyke at aol.com]

There were two very different fresh air controls on Panteras. Early '71s had one type and late '73-74 had another. Unfortunately, most of the cars imported were late '71-early '73 and those had no fresh air intakes (type 2 & 3 in your ref pg). As you said, it's likely that you have a type 4.  Anyone with a late car and a digital camera?

   Hi,
   I do not know where to connect the fresh air pickup control cable to
   the heater control assembly on the dash. I have 3 control cables
   connected up to the heater control , dash vent / defrost, floor and
   heat. I have the valve for the fresh air pickup as shown here, item
   41. [1]http://www.pim.net/detsec12ill19.jpg
   The control cable 31A, connects to heater control assembly, item 19
   here, [2]http://www.pim.net/14.1pim.html. Mine is not the later
   vacuum/pushbutton style.
   I remember many years ago when I dismantled it, the control assm did
   have 2 cables on 1 lever but I do not know which one. I have looked for
   evidence of screws or wire marks but nothing.
   The fresh air box seems to be from serial# 5284, does anyone know or
   can check their car for where this illusive cable lives on the control?
   Thank you,
   Brian
