    Coolant Filter Valves

    Posted by Jerry on February 17, 2015 at 9:10 pm

    After a recent service, my Coolant Filter was changed. Now, I have coolant seeping out of the stems on the T handles for the shut off valves. My Question is, Which way is open for circulating through the filter, or in Normal operating postiion? All the way out, as in the picture, or all the way in?

    Excuse the sideways picture

    All the way out is open, they always leak a little after being open or closed. Maybe gently make sure they are open all the way.

    I tried that, they are all the way out. Just wanted to make sure I was going the right way.

    Jerry close the valve half way and tighten up the packing nut then re open the valve
