Cabin operated Heater Water Valve Kit, suitable for TR2-3B cars fitted with a Clayton Heater (16mm tubes), includes all Fittings and Instructions. This kit enables accurate control of heater water flow from within the cabin via a precision inline valve.
TR2-3Bs don't have a valve that is accessible from the cabin at all, all that is available is a crude tap located in the engine bay. This kit introduces an inline valve allowing control of the heater from within the cabin using the cable and knob included in the kit. When this heater valve kit is fitted the heater tap on the engine block will no longer be needed and can be replaced with feed pipe kit RTR1491K. See belowThis clever inline valve (inline meaning it sits in the water hose) has an internal water flow regulating tumbler with a cleverly designed aperture shape. This means that increase in water flow is proportional to lever movement, providing sensitive control of heater water flow with a very smooth, friction free operation.
There are 4 kits available in this RTR1486 range. The RTR1486-1K kit suits TR2-3B with our Clayton Heater fitted, the -2K kit provides an inline valve for TR4-6 with a standard heater fitted, the -3K kit fits TR2-3B with the standard heater fitted and the -4K kit provides a valve that screws into the cylinder head adaptor of TR4-6. The -3K kit is also a universal kit, allowing it to be fitted to any car requiring a valve as it includes adaptor hoses to suit 13, 16 and 19mm pipe work as well as a 1m long operating cable.
Whist these valves are available on the general market, the valve alone is not an attractive proposition as other components are needed to effect a proper installation. The push on connections are 16mm (5/8") diameter whereas the TR heater hoses are ½" (12.7mm) and a means of attaching the cable to the operating post on the valve is required. RevingtonTR kits include all the components to make a proper installation including conversion hoses and the appropriate cable to valve post trunnion as well as all other parts needed, with instructions for a comprehensive installation. Hoses in these kits are made for us by an OEM manufacturer as are our valves, therefore as with other RevingtonTR product, quality is Assured.
