The work around would be to shut off the coolant supply and return lines
from the block to the radiator hose. Probably not what you wanted to know. I
don't know why you would need to pull the gearbox cover but I have a BT7 and
the heater supply and return lines go through the fire wall bulkhead more or
less behind the heater box.

Listers,

My heater valve sprung a leak (ironically, when it's in the 'off' 
position). I've replaced it before, and remember it being a real PITA
(underdash work is my least favorite). Anyone have some tips or workarounds?
I have a radio, so it's gotta come out--not a big deal--but do I have to
pull the gearbox cover (a bit bigger deal)?

TIA,
Bob
