C2 A/C Hot Water Shut-off valve

[Harry S.]

I probably already realize the answer but I have to ask.

Are the C2 hot water shut-off valves repairable? Mine is letting a small amount of water into the heater core.

Thanks

yes it can be repaired. There are previous posts about how.

Repairable - probably
Reliability after repair - iffy
Ease of repair - NOT Easy

LI has a nice repop at a reasonable price

email me at tio2jim@aol.com and ill give you some search criteria for a NOS unit

LIC no longer offers the part. They are reducing their parts inventory.......

Don, it appears that whoever was making them stopped. LIC and all the usual suspects list them as discontinued.

Gues I thought we were talking about the switch that sits on top of heater box inside cockpit. But seems meant the valve controlled by switch.

Here is a reproduction that looks nothing like the original. The one I removed did not have a date on it. I guess it is one of the aftermarket parts that looks very much like the original.

The one I took out. Rusty water drained for awhile.

Our original heater hot water valves were made by DOLE. I believe originals have that name somewhere on the valve if you look for it.

LICS sold their last (almost) exact reproduction hot water valve about 10 years ago.

I just spend an hour trying to clear the one I took out. It's now in the re-cycling barrel.
