| Member   Group: Members Posts: 235 Joined: 19-January 08 From: Florida Member No.: 8,595 Region Association: South East States  | I read on this forum recently about someone swapping out their proportioning valve for a "T" fitting. Does anyone know the size/thread count of the correct "T" fitting? Any fabrication required? |
