marki Posted September 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Hi All. Not keen on the Revington idea, looks a bit home made. Foster is that valve available in the UK ? Looks a bit more proper job.... Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Hi Mark, the simple direct fit valve is hard to come by over here - if not impossible. Most of the US suppliers will not post here either. That is why I made my own for the 4A. Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites

marki Posted September 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Just tried the Amazon one, and as Niall said they don't ship to the UK Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnG Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Nope Tried, won't ship to the UK Shame, an easy fix by the look of it. The quickest way would be to use a colleague/relative/friend based in the USA as an intermediary I guess Quote Link to post Share on other sites

marki Posted September 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 That's a good idea. I'm sure there would be a few of us to put a decent order together. Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TriumphV8 Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) http://www.ebay.com/itm/HVAC-Heater-Control-Valve-Heater-Valve-4-Seasons-74648-/271950328902#shpCntId They ship to UK for 16USD. Have this in use for years and it moves easy and regulates heat better than stock. Another nice improvement for the TR! It is from the International Scout.
