As I recall, that valve is a simple cone shaped valve held snug by a small
spring. There are no seals so it relies on a precision fit between the tapered
hole and the cone. You might try disassembling it and lapping the two parts
together with some fine valve lapping compound.

The heater control tap in our BJ7 which is located near the engine
block, right-rear and is connected via hose to the heater was leaking
(still original probably) and I ordered a new one from Victoria British
(very expensive) last year and installed it this March. Since then, open
or closed, the new one leaks as well. These brass taps look like they
are hand-made in a tiny shop in Asia somewhere. Any suggestions for a
solution? I was even thinking about replacing it with a self-made piece
to connect the hose without the tap. If I had my welder and tools here
in the States, no problem.

Cheers,
