.  I have it plumbed to the radiator with a

cutoff valve. I would strongly suggest one as should a leak develop this
would enable you to shut off the hot water.

Ed, you need TWO shut off valves if you expect to close off a break in the
heater core.  One will stop the hot water from going through the core, but
there is enough pressure in the system to force fluid out from the socalled
suction side.

Anyone have a good suggestion as to how to do this and control it from
the cockpit?

Thanks,

My Dodge Caravan has a solenoid valve in the heater circuit but it is
made from plastic and is currently leaking after nine years.
Perhaps you could find one out of a Toyota :-)
