Answer
Hello Don, I haven't worked on a 1980 in a long time. I'm not sure if the heater doors work off vacuum or a cable. Does it switch to the heater? If not then I would look for a vacuum leak at the intake manifold. If it is cable operated just look under the dash while you move the lever and maybe you can see the problem.

Sorry I can't be more help on this one
