But, as I recall they are the only place on a Healey that has a 12/32
thread.

It is not hard to fabricate a correctly shaped handle out of a piece of
bronze stock.

Years ago, I bought a couple tap handles--the part most likely to
break--from Bob Yule at Autofarm. He was the only vendor I could find that
supplied that part, so check with him.

Note: The valves can often be 'rebuilt' by  polishing the conical seat with
some fine sandpaper.

Listers, 

 

I am looking for a heater control tap for my 66 BJ8.  This is the water
shutoff valve from the block that controls the flow of water to the heater,
Moss part # 835-620.

 

Does anyone have one they would sell or does anyone know a source other than
Moss?

 

Thanks,

 

Fred
