Thanks Tony,

I know what the T44's heater valve looks like. I've had experience with one
failing. As far as I know the 90's heater valve should be identical.

I'm looking for the heater valve on my Audi 90 model. So far I can't find
it, strange as it seems. I've followed the supply hose from the thermostat
flange to the firewall. No heater valve. I've looked up what the heater
valve for the 90 is supposed to look like and evidently its supposed to be
the same one as the T44's. The car is not producing much heat to the cabin
so that has been my inspiration to investigate the heater valve status.
Maybe that it was removed at one time and never replaced? The car was
originally located in San Antonio TX so heat would not have been a big
concern. Where SHOULD these be located in the 90 model?

TIA,
Steve
