go tot he local pick and pull and get new controlls from another monte also.
Or you can patch it with taking the cabel in the dash and moving it manually with pliers etc.. if this is not what broke.

Anyone know what areas under the hood one might begin to look for this leaking vacuum line that would cause the control to only blow air thru the defroster vents on a 1998 Monte Carlo Z34 ????
