69 camaro heater valve diaphram

 

 

Makes sense much appreciated

 

Got another one.

 

Automatic transmission (TH400?) vacuum line. The swedged down part fit inside modulator valve, then a hose covered it and kept it from leaking.

 

Something strange is going on. The above statement by Dyno John came up on my end like it wrote it, with "post reply". Weird

 

I thinks it's a TH400 too. The TH350 is longer.

Th400

TH350

JM45, is yours a big block car?

 

A 350 with 350 turbo trans

 

I stand corrected! I can see how the modulator end has a 90 degree bend instead of the more obtuse on the 400.

 

It's difficult to remember every part after nearly two decades. I took a lot of pictures and did a lot of labeling but it's never enough. Some things get missed. I'll probably post a few dozen more bf it's done. Thanks for your help

 

I've had the same thing happen to me, especially the markings on the bags disappearing. I'm thinking of using the bags that have the white area to write in. I bet that will keep the markings intact.

I had 35 years to try to remember things!

 

Wow that is a while. I originally just wrapped whatever part or fastener with duct tape and labeled it. That turned out to be a big mistake. A lot of the Sharpie writing had vanished and the tape disintegrated. Later on I went to large zip locks with a white flag and permanent marker. They've held up.

 

Anyone ever seen a proportioning valve setup like this? I don't know what the cylinder on the right is or what it's for.

 

I found a great video on YouTube about this. Distribution block, metering valve, and down on the frame was a small proportioning valve. In 71 GM combined all three into one proportioning valve, which is mainly what comes in today's rebuild kits unless otherwise specified. I've said since the beginning I'm going to try and go back 95% original. This is going to fall into the other 5%. Thanks for your help

 

All the books show the short lines going straight into the proportioning valve like this.

And btw, anyone know what this red wire goes to? My label has crumbled away

 

That's a metering/hold-off valve next to the disribution black on a stock system. The other one is a combination valve used on later models and conversion kits. All this data with pics and correct terminology is at CRG. Trace the wire to its source.

 

That wire goes to what's left of a circuit breaker. I'm gonna guess it goes to your power convertible top circuit.

 

 

Does your car also have the valve on the subframe? There's still a bit of a mystery as what cars got them.

 

Yes, mine had that too. As you can tell, all of mine are rusted nearly completely out

 

And I've got to say, this forum is truly invaluable as a reference and assistance. I really appreciate everyone's input. It is clearly apparent of everyone's dedication to all things Camaro. What a great community of wrenchers

 

Those valves typically are rusted in the bores too. Best to take them apart and replace O-rings and inspect the bores.

 

Lets play Name That Part again today. It's so much quicker to ask you guys instead of leafing through my pictures or books. Name that part and where does it go?

 

Very rare curved block off plates for a RS Camaro convertible that go behind the grille, and in front of the weight canisters. If you don't want to reinstall them, I'll give you 20 bucks for the pair. 😱

 

That's right, I didn't see the curves and wasn't thinking he had a convertible.

 

I don't blame you. Lots of talent here.
These are the AC condenser/radiator core support baffles/seals.

 

Thanks for the diagram. Which book is that in?

 

I had to make new rubber flaps but they turned out pretty good. Absolutely sucked pulling all the staples, cleaning them, and getting them back in.

 

In search of, bushings that go on the wiper linkage

 

Shrink wrap?

 

Shrink wrap?

 

Those seals look excellent! How did you cut them so cleanly? Are reproductions available?

I also used heat shrink like Dyno said.
