Proportioning valve question

If you look in the Factory Service Manual for the year your are replicating there will be a description of what the valve does.


Also don't be shy about buying used valves. As long as they are not gummed up inside or the o rings etc dried out. They will work
Did they even use holdoff valves on cars of 68 era? I ask this because i never have heard of one. Will check my manual. Thanks for the suggestion.
