I believe my heater core has a pinhole leak in it. I'm not seeing any coolant, but I do smell coolant when first starting out, but then it dissipates.
I'd like to install a bypass setup where I could bypass the heater core when I don't need heat. I'm thinking something similar to what my water heater in the camper has on it. It uses two of these valves like I've attached below. Does anyone know whether these could handle the task? I know the pressure will be significantly less than the camper system, but I wasn't sure about the temp.
Thoughts? Seems like it'd work in theory.
