Air Conditioning Blower

Hey guys! It is awful hot this summer and my A/C ain't putting out like it ought to. The air is nice and cold but the fan isn't pushing the air out hard enough. I have replaced the blower without any change. The fan speed selector switch appears to work since the fan changes speed at each selection. My truck is a 1987 Ranger Ext Cab 4x2. Any suggestions would be great.

When you replaced the blower did you clean out all the leaves and crap?

After installation of the new blower, I immediately could see that nothing had changed. I then removed the blower and cleaned some debris from the condensor (?) deal. I did notice a bit of improvement, but nothing to write home about.

Measure the voltage at the blower motor with the switch set to high, should be at least 10v. If you get 10+ I would look for more trash in the vents, don't forget to check the inlet side.
