Hi folks, I am aware of the valve that needs replaced to fix the heater from being constantly on. However I don't understand how the heater works. Yesterday while on a road trip down rt 68 in Maryland (beutiful mountains) I realized that manually sliding the lever on the valve did not do the trick. I then got a hose clamp and a socket put it around the hose going into the heater core and tighten it, made no difference. Is there any way I can simply disconnect the heater core at the wires. Or should I just replace the valve and bleed a little air out of the system. I just wonder what makes the heater core run ?
thanks for reading Brian 87 Gl automatic
