Bob M said: (quoted from post at 22:23:19 12/04/09) Your recap is right on!
Thanks Bob. I just looked at it a little bit ago and realized it doesn't have a counter weight on it. Just a round quarter inch shaft sticking out with a slot in it and the spring wrapped around it. The end of the spring hooked over a small post sticking out a little below the shaft. The slot in the shaft was almost perpendicular with the ground but at about 9:30 & 3:30 orientation.
Gotta move some hay tomorrow, I'll try a screw driver in the slot to see if it moves and what it does after warmup.
Will the lack of a counterweight affect it? Thanks.
Without the weight the heat control valve will not open properly when warmed up. The spring is of bi-metal construction so that as it gets hot it uncoils. The weight is there to ensure that the valve opens completely.
