Not really, since when you remove the valve, the coolant will automagically drain to just the required level. Unless of course this is a Stag with the heater control valve inside the car (in which c

... The heater valve on Spitfire/GT6 is also high on the system. In fact, it is attached to the back end of the intake manifold with a large nut over a fitting like a banjo flange (if I remember righ

Hi Listers, Santa dropped off an early present via UPS from the TRF this afternoon. My questions is, do I need to do anything special when I replace the heater control valve in my 74 TR6 this weekend

I just did the same valve replacement on my 73 TR6. The workshop manual says you need to drain the cooling system prior to replacement but I don't think this is really necessary. Just use a cork in

Hmm. That's a fascinating description of fixing the beasty - I've never gotten beyond step 0, which is "twist off old valve flush with head while trying to remove". You can block the thing off, too -

This morning on my way to work in the spit I stopped at a stop sign and slight puff of smoke came out from under the front end. After pulling over and opening the bonnet I noticed antifreeze coming f

Try a couple of extra turns of teflon tape. Make sure you do not apply the tape to the first thread, to avoid having the stuff floating around in the coolant! 2nd choice- run a pipe tap into the hol

Get some of the 'Teflon' pipe dope (paste, not tape) at the local hardware store and use it to coat the threads of your heater valve. That should allow you to turn it tight, and then go another 1/2

FWIW, I don't know anything about Spits or GT6s, but I think I read recently that the GT6 head was derived from the 5/250/6 head with some modification. And given that the tendancy was to use a lot o

According to my TRF Spitfire catalogue, a TR6 heater valve (565755) or an MGB (BHA5298) part can be used to replace the early Spitfire units, but you need to re-use the bottom cast part of the old va
