[QUOTE="redgaz54, post: 636229, member: 26177"] First type have a cable operated flap, the cable is connected to, and is operated by the mechanical thermostat/flap set up. The next type, one year only, ( my engine had this type on originally, 71 year) , flap is operated by a waxstat operated plunger , these are ok but the waxstat thingys are rarely still working and are unobtainable , worse still they fail shut!, lethal in hot weather , (ask me how i know ) the later vac operated are a very clever set up, just make sure the thermo/ vac switch located in the top of the filter, and the vac operated flap diaphragm are working .
