Mark,

        I have the same problem with the valve on the hose to the heater core.  
I fixed that and can NOW control the "temperature" of the air coming out the 
center vent.  The side vents still let in cold air, keep them shut thru winter. 
Apparently there's a problem with the vacuum hoses that control those vents.  
Haven't had a chance to rip apart my dash yet.

Kevin.
