Packard Forum Index » V-8 (1955-56)

After trying to adjust my Heater Control Valve on my Clipper 1956( it was stuck in full heat position), it's started leaking.
Does anybody know if there's a rebuild kit for this valve?
Core return is very expensive from Norway, so I want to try rebuilding it.
I have not yet removed the valve, so I don't know if it's
part 444644 or 475064.

Thanks.

There is a rebuild kit available from NAPA/Balkamp for these valves, though I don't recall if it applies to valves as late as 1955/56 though I don't believe these valves changed much over the years. The kit is about $10.00 You'll find an excellent tutorial by Big Kev on the repair of the valve in the "Literature and Manuals" section.

Thanks for info and link.
