My package from City Racer came today and so did my ball valve, so I did a little more work on Scout. Every time I get a package from that dude it feels like Christmas. The parts are packaged up safely and I know what I'm about to open is amazing quality. Thanks so much Roger!!
The heater valve was super easy to replace, probably only a cup of antifreeze spilled out as I disconnected the old crusty and leaking one seen here.....
Super easy to replace. I checked the old one and it definitely leaks coolant past even when it's closed, whereas the new one is a tight seal.
I also threw this in for good measure. It will be nice once the weather heats up to not have EternaHeat any longer.
Thank you 1911 and Cruiserkev for the idea. This place is amazing for support and thought sharing.
If you're interested, here's what I used....
Amazon product ASIN B07CMC62YR
I have yet to close the valve down and see how it works but I assume since it completely stops the flow it will work well. Today was wet and chilly so I left it open.
More to come in my Adventures in Land Cruisering!
Cheers,
Adam
