Hi Roger,

My '83 XJS-HE suffers from poor airflow (read: almost no airflow)
from the centre vents. I had assumed that there was a blower fan
not working, and intended to get around to it one of these days,
after I take care of some other more pressing maintenance jobs.
Like you, I get plenty of air from other vents, so it isn't a serious
problem.

In regard to air temperature, I have to report that my A/C gets very
cold very quickly... and easily hits the 65F mark. So perhaps you still
have a problem with the A/C.

Cheers,
