The adjuster probably works, but your dampers are probably blown if they are original. I'd say don't worry about it and just upgrade to some KYB AGX's that are more adjustable just not from the inside of the cabin.

That's what I've done on my GXL.

Yeah, what Risihie said.

Truth of the matter Is they never really had a driving effect to begin with. A Mechanic of mine, working on Rotaries for many years, said they never had any difference to begin with. The same can be said with myself.

I since disconnected the Dampers and use both plugs for Ignition sources. One for my RPM Switch (to activate my Auxilliary Ports via Air Compressor, sweet by the way) and the other Damper source to turn my fan on when my car Is on.
