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.
