Revenge of the 940 -Heater valve and heater hose 900

Don't let your 940 hear this, but another loss of coolant incident can occur if the nipple on the bottom of the coolant reservoir become brittle and cracks off.

"Don't trust yellow reservoirs."



My son lost his 95 940 due to heater valve failure at highway speed. By the time he got it to the side of I-81 the head gasket was gone and the #1 spark plug wire was on fire!
