Leaking heater....

[RattyB]

Part number is JGE000070 and I think the RHD version ends 000060. Try putting that into Rimmer's part-number box. Breath in; they are now 250 Quid!
www.allcarpartsfast.co.uk have 'em at £159.93 + VAT though , which is what I paid Nick at Austin's for my 00070

Googling just on "JGE000060" will bring up quite a lot of options, but I couldn't find one cheaper. Nick may have one ??

Best check that JGE000060 is correct for RHD; I know my JGE000070 is the correct valve for LHD.

Edit: haven't fitted mine yet. Nick say's its a dash out job :-(
Maybe just the console unit is enough, but I'm not banking on that. LHD is different anyway, some bits being handed, some not.

So it's not JGE000010 as the Rimmer diagram suggests? Edit, thanks for the pics. So far I've found this forum very helpful

Not sure which bit of your car is leaking, but the distribution valve is part number 9 on this Rimmer page (no schematic there !!).

The picture you sent is the part that I believe is causing my leak, so JGE000060 would be correct.

Good responses David, I didn't think to ask whether it was an MG or a Rover, would have saved a lot of time if this had been stated at the outset.

In all fairness, you wouldn't think there would be a difference, let alone LHD/RHD versions. Guess it has something to do with the little knurled wheel on my nice woody dash, where ZT guys have the V8 badge on your painty jobs??

JGE000010 is the part number for the valve next to the heater.

JGE000020 is the part number for the valve in the plenum.

Got the blighter out, and as you can see, didn't need to remove the dash! You can also see clearly where the leak is! This is what Sundays are made for!

Congrats !!!!!!
... Fancy a long weekend in S.Holland to do mine? (You could bring a heated screen with you too).

Ha ha...I sense a business venture in the offing. Thanks for all the help chaps. I'll update you with how the refit goes.
