I have a cable on the way after the last one broke trying to move the less than adequate replacement valve that never fully worked, was stiff to turn (why my wire broke) and leaked within 100 miles. So, back at it...Anyone know of any info on replacing the cable? Or perhaps tips when doing it on setting it up right? Seems real tight under there to be routing wires around and whatnot. With this new valve it was either feast or famine. I have installed the shut off valve in the cab and that is great for summer/winter but not dialing in the heat when road tripping. I am redoing my expansion tank and flushing coolant so going to tackle this and see if I can get the valve to finally work where I can adjust the temperature from the adjustment lever.
