Bit of a cheek here, I used to own a Rover Cooper (but now have a MG Midget) as my everyday car
I'm thinking of fitting a new (Mini) heater valve - do they leak?
The new MG (bath tap, lift the bonnet to adjust) heater valve I've just fitted leaks and I'm told this type all do so I was thinking of changing to a Mini type and have a cable to the cabin where the wife and I can constantly change what the other has just set the heater to

For some reason I can't get the alternative photos of the Mini type to show
And I cant find a photo of the MG (bath tap) valve at the moment
I now see the Mini in-line type will not be a good solution
ETA: ok the photo link didn't work so it's down to part number = 13H 5506

Hi, thought I'd posted this yesterday but it must be a deja vu moment:
The mini one that bolts to the top of the head is not that effective and has a tendency to sieze, or corrode under the rubber hose, hence I replaced mine a while back. Can't remember ever having similar problems with the ones fitted to my Midgets in the past, although I probably left them open all year round.
