Title: Heater Bypass valve
Post by: Roy on 08 February 2008, 10:55:43

Can anyone help, please. I am fitting a new HBV but when I put the pipes on, the single entry pipe appears to be kinked. does anybody know which pipe goes where on the two outlets from the valve. I have the one to the heaterpipe on the bulkhead on the top one.  :'(

from memory

single side to coolant bridge
top to balkhead
bottom to coolant rail

Hopefully someone can confirm before fitting it.

Yup - top one on the 2 pipe side goes to the heater pipe on the bulkhead - picture below if it helps?

Many thanks, got it back together now and the leak seems to have stopped.
They don`t seem to do or know about the facelift 2.2 here in France (The Opel dealer in Saumur didn`t any way)
Thanks again for the Info

Roy :)
