Re: It's getting toasty in here! ('41 Packard 110 Heater stuck on)

Thru 47 that was the only heater control valve other than closing the doors on the heater enclosure to keep air from circulating. I think the drill was open the valve in fall when it started getting cold and close it when spring came around and hope there were no ambiguous days.

If mine, I would not attempt to close it in place without keeping every finger crossed. You might be able to remove the valve and free it up in a more controlled and convenient place but if not, universal valves are available thru most parts stores and many vendors. Downside is new ones do not look the same. If the valve is same as other years, IIRC it is 3/8 pipe into the head and 5/8 hose outlet.
