Anyone have a replacement number for the heater control three port valve? Its the valve in the dash control assembly used on 1975 & 1976 coaches. It sends vacuum to the in line heater valve and is operated with the temperature slide. Anyone ever try to repair one?
I see Applied has it for $100 but.....Ouch.

I guess Mine is OK after all so I won't need one thank goodness. BUT, unfortunately, the heater control itself has a broken pin that looks like a sun of a gun to make. I'm hoping the super glue will hold it together or if not there might be one available from a salvage GMC. We'll see.

Thank you Emery, they have one on the way. With my limited ability on a lathe and mill, buying a $10 pin saved a days work.
Seem to be some really nice folks there too.
