- Said valve is leaking from around the valve stem while the valve is 1. Can these things be opened up and the packing or whatever renewed? I put the valve on about 20 years ago and cannot remember if

- Yes, the packing can be renewed. Ask for valve stem packing at the local hardware store, they probably have it (my Home Depot carries it). Gore-tex is best (but they probably won't have that), I'm n

- I was down in Orange County (California) for the week for work. When driving back to my hotel (after midnight), it would be cold so I had to get out, lift the bonnet and open the water heater valve a

- Bill, my concern would be whether the plastic valve would take the heat. The water going through there could potentially be hotter than boiling ... Chrysler products used to use an in-line cable ope

- Why not just add the valve in the cockpit, and leave the engine compartment valve in place and open? /// triumphs@autox.team.net mailing list /// To unsubscribe send a plain text message to majordomo

- Having never been lucky enough to own a TR3, this is just a shot in the dark: Would one of the water valves from a Spitfire, GT6, or TR6 work? Hugh Barber Hollister, CA '73 TR6 (previously owned a '7

- Yes, but then you'd need to attach a cable to it and mount it and mount the cable end somewhere. Probably just adding a home hot water valve would be easiest. -- George Richardson Wyvern - '57 Triump

- You could get a "generic" choke cable, route it to the TR valve and hide the pull/push under the dash. At least that way you wouldn't be putting sprinkler parts on your TR. Hugh Yes, but then you'd
