Re: Boost/intercooler stuff



Ben -

I don't think you want a used heater control valve. They eventually fail
and may split in half, like mine did a month or two ago. A new one is only
$20 or so. Aftermarket ones are usually metal-bodied, which seems to
prevent the kind of failure that I had with the OEM one, but then again,
the OEM ones often make it more than ten years.
