ah ok.The alternator that i got has a built in regulator ,i have heard this is quite common and
people somehow splice a certain wire to another wire and hey presto.by passing the reg under
the seat.
Would anyone be able to clarify that for me.
Thanks

If you have J-pipes you need to plug that right hand heater outlet being right up north, or if you still have heaterboxes refit the heater hoses, even if you dont use the heaters.
its an important but frequently overlooked part of the cooling system

Hi Joel.
Oh ok, i did not know that.I do have j-pipes,we did that a while back when i had my old coil and it was getting to hot.It stopped when we unblocked that side.But now i have new coil,it should be fine.
Thanks for the heads up.😎
