[DeTomaso] Hot water valve

[bill gaino]

I belived that my early car did not leak coolant into the heat box. I was amazed how the 40 year old valve held so well. This time of year in the fall, I just turned on the blower with the heat off.... guess what?  It was hot!  I flipped on the a/c and it cooled right back. I have been cooling and heating the whole time. I clamped off the flow to the heat box and now have very much cooler a/c. Just saying!   Bill 1362
