I discovered my rear heater valve leaks at the seal if you wiggle the connected hose. So, should I replace the whole valve or just the O-ring? Who should I buy from? The archives suggest the dealer charges ~$45 for the valve and ~$3 for the O-ring. The blower won't turn and eats fuses. It was seized up but I got it to rotate by hand. It's still not wanting to trun freely and ate another fuse. Can I save it or do I need a new one? Who should I buy from? I suspect the heater core is junk too. I've heard $55 new at Halsey in Portland. Can anyone beat that? If this repair is going to cost $180 I might just bypass it. Thanks, John
