'90 240 DL wagon heat 200 1990

I've read some of the posts here and I'm still not clear on something.
My '90 240 hot/cold slider is not very effective. I can get it to cut heat in the extreme cold position. However, any position off of far left results in what feels like full heat. There is no modulation at all. The other end of the cable does move the heater control valve. Will replacing the valve let me modulate the heat better or is this "the way they are"? It seems to me that if the cable moves the valve, I should be able to modulate the heat effectively. If a new valve is in order, do I want an "old" style or "new" style? From which vendor?

Thanks in advance,

Mike
