As above they have a control valve on the matrix pipes which has probably stuck.

during a/c testing of transits we always had to disconnect the heater valve and put a cable tie on it to make sure that it remained closed. shit things.

Yeh, the MG.. Its specific only to the V8 hence the price, I didn't have to buy one though as I have a spare damaged car to pinch bits off
