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.
