From what I understand of the 914 heating system, the fan housing outlets have to be blocked off if I'm not running heat. Can anyone give suggestions on how to block these off? I could weld them up, but Im not sure about the material, and I'd like to be able to seperate the fan housing without grinding and rewelding.

Mine have been open 100% of the time and I haven't seen high oil temps. Even will all the spirited driving at the WCC.
Duct tape will not work. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/sad.gif) That's what I tried originally and it came off almost instantly with all the heat. If I were going to plug them off, I'd use aluminum and epoxy. |
