Definitely will be wanting one of the billet ones as soon as they’re ready!

Thanks for posting the pics Mata, those are the ones I looked at a few months ago and it’s really useful having them posted here
Three issues seem to plague the original valve. 1. It can start to leak at the main body seam. 2. In some instances the Bowden cable does not fully push the valve leaver back, allowing hot coolant to continue to flow to the heater matrix even when set to fully cold by the heater control knob. 3. In some instances even with the valve leaver fully pushed back and the heater control knob on fully cold the valve internals still let hot coolant flow to the heater matrix. I Agee with Zed, it does look a thing of beauty, as does everything I’ve seen from Design and development engineering, and IRB’s bespoke components such as their output shaft. ( I’m likely to purchase and fit an IRB output shaft soon) Hence I’m keen on IRB ( ian, Porny on here) providing as much insight as he feels appropriate on how the 3 points I highlighted above ( perhaps more I’m unaware of ) are addressed by his collaboration with D&DE on this solution. |
