We just purchased our clipper. It is a 1977 with a 440. Im in the process of getting it ready for or first outing. However I noticed that the bimetal spring on the Heat Riser is broken. Is there a way to just remove the part? What should I do.
Thanks

Adrian: I suggest wiring the butterfly in a open position. I've had Thorley headers for the last 14 years and they certainly don't have a heat control valve. I've never had trouble with a 440 warming up. Warming up will be the least of your problems.
Thanks
On that valve which way is open? Do I rotate it clock or counter clock wise?

Adrian; Counter clockwise is the open position. Good luck on your trip.
