I tried blocking the fresh air intake on the passenger side so the fan would be pulling from inside. No good. You need the fresh air to defog the windshield, I think the air in the cab is too moist.

Left side kick-panel fresh air vent leaking

I've got a similar problem with the Left side kick-panel fresh air vent leaking. I attempted to remove it for seal repair, but it is blocked by the parking brake pedal. The pedal is rivited in. Does anyone know how to block it off, or repair the seal while it is in place? Below 30 degrees, it gets pretty cold on my knee!

Crack a window open about an inch or so depending on the outside temp. This will help to get rid of the moist air in the cab, circulate some of it it outside and also let the heater bring in more warm air into the cab. As the heater brings the heated air into the cab from outside it builds up the inside pressure alittle in the cab, making it slightly harder to blow more in.
