My Coupe had so much heat pouring out of the vents you could not keep your
hand in front of it for long or it would burn.
The 4kq on the other hand is only marginally adequate with simular outside
temps.
My friend's 4kq is even worse.
I am tempted to pull the heater core out and check it out.
Now that the A/C is out it should be a snap.
I feel so sory for someone with A/C that actually has to replace one.
