Dick,

The AutoTemp system in your '68 is AutoTemp I, not II.
They are different systems with different servos.
AutoTemp I, to its advantage, does not used the the
same plastic, underhood servo that is the cause of
most AutoTemp II problems.

Fortunately, the AutoTemp I is very well illustrated
and discussed in the 1968 service manual. With some
study, I bet you can get yours going again.

I'm still getting to know AutoTemp I. Mine works, but
makes a rude noise. I'm told that this is caused by 
leaky check valves. I hope to get replacements someday
and test that theory!

Best Regards,
Dave Duricy
