What's he been running in the cooling system? It should never have corroded like that if he'd had sufficient corrosion inhibitor it here. Being in S.A., I suspect he runs a very high water content and hasn't thought much about what else ought to be in there. With mixed metal systems, you can't do that. It may be closing the stable door after the horse has bolted, but if he ever finds a replacement, he needs to make sure he's following some sensible guidance on anti-corrosion measures, otherwise it will happen again.

The electronically controlled heater control valve has failed and is currently bypassed. He has asked the agent in South Africa with no success and I have asked our Morgan dealer in the UK if they can check with MMC. Currently the status with MMC is that the valve is on back order as the component is no longer manufactured – so still waiting an alternative. The name on the white label on the part says 'Eaton' with a number 354-69. I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on the component and a possible source to obtain a replacement. If in the UK I can get it and take it out to South Africa next time I go. (I have more photos that I could send off group) Kind regards Mike Lynch E17 MOG Le Mans Green +4 2009 ------------------------------------------- View posts on The Mail Archive http://www.mail-archive.com/mogtalk2@listbox.com/ [http://www.mail-archive.com/mogtalk2@listbox.com/] Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=22459785&id_secret=22459785-4a39ddf8 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
