Heater Unit for Triumph Spitfire 1500, 1977


Black Cat

Recommended Posts

Hi,

When I stripped down my car a couple of years ago I refurbished my heater unit, however both the soft metal control vales were completely shot away but I did manage to fashion what I thought were suitable replacement. Having installed the refurbished unit in my car I fine the heater control wont work very well, the slider only slid about half the way across on the dash panel and I believe the problem lies with my replacement parts.

Has anybody on here had the same problem and if so have you managed to replicate the soft metal parts or does anybody know where they can be obtained?

Many thanks.

You may well be right scrapman, I did notice that after I posted. I'm not sure if I actually installed the pivots as the second photo but it well worth a second look. If that doesn’t work I think I'll look to remake the left hand pivot.

Many thanks for pointing that out.
