Re: BillM




The heater control valve and core are both new, although there were
some problems found w/ the core during installation. I also discovered
that the newly rebuilt valve is sticking and JC Auto Resto was nice
enough to send me another one so I can replace the defective unit.
I'll probably warranty replace the core when I get the box out to
change the valve.

BTW, I didn't pull the heater box the first time, the guy I bought it
from did. Any tips for getting the box out and back in easily?

Thanks

my heater valve failed along time ago, and was rusted out pretty bad.
so, I had it welded up, and ran a cable out to an inline valve I
installed
in the heater hose inlet side. It works great except the lever on the
dash
now works backwards. that was about 15 years ago and no leaks. but
you should be able to get it fixed properly now a days. I think there's
some info on the websites tech/restoration section.
