All,

I've just recently replaced my internally leaking original to the car heater control valve.

I installed the new one, made by MTC I think, and well I'm not impressed, especially for what I paid for it.

I tested it before putting it in and it did completely shut off, however once in the car, and still completely shut off, I'm still getting warm air coming out of the vents. Not a fan of this especially since I have zero a/c currently in the car.

What I want to know is how much do I have to adjust the adjusting screw for the feedback loop to shut the flow of water completely off, and if anyone knows or understands how this whole thing really works, I'd really like to know.

Thanks in advance,

Matt
