i didn't think it would take 5 years to get it back together, but it has. thank god i have a fabulous wife.

I cannot remember how the heater valve gets hooked up.

here's how I describe the available plumbing:

i've got two source pipes: (a) one from the front of the head running to the back (let's call that the "long pipe") and (B)a short elbow off the back of the head (we'll call that one "elbow.")

there's two hoses from the heater box, a "top" hose and a "bottom" hose. lrt'sd call them "THB" and "BHB," respectively.

and on the heater valve, sticking intot he engine compartment are two points of attachment, the upper, 11:00 o'clock and the lower, 7:00 o'clock fittings. let's shorthand those to "UHV" and "LHV," respectively.

ok, who can tell me what goes to what, using my descriptors?

thanks!
