Hot air from blower on my leg???

Same guy, new problem.

I noticed last night that when I crank up the heat, it doesn't blow out of the vents, but it blows onto my leg. It's not a direct air stream either. I feel the radiant heat.

What did I break this time?

just look underneath, the tubes that redirect the air probably have been kicked or something stupid and are just coming right out of the heatercore assembly to your leg. trust me i've replaced a heatercore in my rx-7 and it is not a pretty sight.
Just get on your back look up where the pedals are and you should be able to see the problem. And now for proof that i've replaced a heatercore and how difficult it actually is (brag brag)
