VAZ 2107 stove valve selection and replacement

A VAZ 2107 car is equipped with a stove, which is part of the engine cooling system. One of the significant parts of the system is the VAZ 2107 heater valve, which plays the role of regulating the supply of heated liquid to the heater radiator. This element is not reliable enough, so car owners of sevens often encounter problems with it such as jamming and leaking. In case of such breakdowns, it is important to promptly replace the device.

Purpose and principle of operation of the stove tap

The stove faucet has a simple purpose - switching modes between “summer” and “winter”. In the summer, the heater is not used, so supplying hot water to the heater radiator would make it impossible to stay in the cabin. In winter, hot air in the cabin of the seven arises due to the supply of heated coolant to the heater radiator.

The VAZ 2107 uses two radiators - one is the main one, which is designed to cool the engine, and the second heater is used mainly in cold weather. The heater radiator, which is located in the passenger compartment, also cools the engine slightly when the fan is turned on, while ensuring the flow of warm air into the car interior.

The switch in question has a smooth adjustment from the “closed” position to “fully open”. The valve is located directly inside the VAZ 2107 car on the supply pipeline, and is controlled by a steel cable connected to a mechanical regulator on the instrument panel.

Frequent device malfunctions

Car owners remember the device when malfunctions occur. There are two main malfunctions of the device that require replacement of the switch, as well as additional ones. In the event of additional damage, the integrity of the switch can be restored without the need to replace it. Let's consider the main types of malfunctions of the device in question:

The occurrence of antifreeze leaks is one of the most popular types of breakdowns on classic Zhiguli models, including the VAZ 2107. A malfunction appears when a puddle of antifreeze begins to appear in the car interior under the driver’s feet. Moreover, to do this, it is not necessary to wait for this puddle to form, because as soon as the faucet begins to leak, a corresponding pungent odor appears in the cabin. If this part leaks, it must be replaced, since it cannot be repaired.
A jammed heater radiator tap occurs when it is impossible to move the switch. The reason for its jamming is the formation of corrosion processes inside. Corrosion occurs quite quickly, and 5-6 months is enough time for the development of such a process. If a part is jammed, you can open it or, conversely, close it with pliers. In this case, keep in mind that you can collapse the rotary rod or cause a leak. If the device jams, it is also recommended to replace it as quickly as possible.

In addition to the main ones, there are additional types of malfunctions of heating taps on the VAZ 2107:

A leak forms from under a pipe or clamp. The pipe and clamp are the elements that are connected to the stove tap. With prolonged use of the car, the fastening of the clamp weakens, so a leak begins to form from the pipe. A simple action will help eliminate such damage - tightening the clamp or replacing it.
Inability to close or open the tap, which is directly related to internal blockage of the device. The reasons for the development of such consequences are known - low-quality antifreeze, contaminants entering the cooling system, as well as corrosive deposits. To eliminate this type of breakdown, it is necessary to remove the part and clean it.
The drive cable used to open and close the tap is broken. In case of this type of breakdown, you will need to replace the cable and continue operating the car with a working interior heating system.

The part in question has enough signs of failure, so before making serious decisions, diagnostic procedures should be carried out to identify the exact cause of the malfunction.

Types of stove taps

If, from the above situations, your seven has a malfunction that requires replacing the heater tap, then before doing this, you need to figure out the choice of the optimal device. It is difficult to say how long the standard switch on a VAZ 2107 will last, but reviews from owners show that the need to replace it most often arises after 3-5 years of vehicle operation. In order for the replacement device to last longer, you will need a competent approach to its selection. Which heater valve is better to install on the VAZ 2107, we will look into it in detail, analyzing all the options.

Heater ball valve

From the factory, membrane-type devices are installed on the seven, which have a short service life. If you want to increase the service life of the switch, it is recommended to replace the standard diaphragm valve with a ball valve. This option is more reliable compared to a membrane device, since a steel sphere is used in the switch design.

The sphere is connected to a rod, through which the structure is activated. It opens by moving the rod in the form of an elongated handle 90 degrees. The disadvantage of the device is that although the sphere is made of stainless steel, corrosive deposits appear on it. Typically, such devices last 1.5-2 times longer than membrane ones.

Diaphragm type tap

Membrane-type devices are installed on all seven injection and carburetor types. It is not known why manufacturers installed cranes of this type on sevens, but this option is the most unreliable. In the best case scenario, such a part will last no more than 5 years.

Membrane-type devices cost about 300 rubles, and the choice of such a device is justified only in one case, if the owner does not want to spend money and make adjustments to the cooling system of a VAZ 2107 car. Experts recommend installing such valves as a last resort, if nothing more suitable can be found managed.

Ceramic faucet

The best solution for those who do not want to replace standard devices every 2-3 years. To modernize the VAZ 2107 stove, it is recommended to install a heater valve with a ceramic locking element. The advantages of ceramics are obvious - long service life, reliability, efficiency. They have only one drawback - the price, which is 3-4 times higher than membrane switches.

Water tap

If you want to “kill two birds with one stone,” that is, save money and at the same time get a durable tap, then it is recommended to give preference to a water tap with a butterfly or lamb-shaped valve. The cost of such devices is low, and they do not last as long as ceramic ones, but an order of magnitude longer than membrane ones. To install the switch in the system, you will need connecting hoses with clamps. There is only one drawback to using such devices - the need to switch modes manually.

Replacement instructions

Replacing the faucet on a VAZ 2107, as on other cars, requires draining the fluid from the system. To do this, you should initially wait until the liquid has cooled, and then place the container and unscrew the plug, waiting for the system to empty. Further replacement of the VAZ 2107 heater valve is carried out in the following way:

Under the hood, loosen the clamps of the hoses going into the passenger compartment and remove them.
Using a “10” key, you need to unscrew the bolts that secure the partition with the pipes going into the cabin.
After this, move it into the cabin and loosen the cable that is connected to the switch. To separate the cable from the tap, you need to loosen the nut with an open-end wrench set to “10”, and then disconnect the tip.
Remove the tap from its location by first unscrewing the two fastening nuts. These nuts secure the device to the heater radiator.
Dismantle the device, and then unscrew the adapter on which the hose is attached. When installing a new tap on the seven, you will need to replace the rubber seals.

Replacing the stove valve VAZ 2105, 2106, 2107

One of the elements of the Zhiguli heating system is the heater tap, with which the air temperature in the cabin is regulated. Over time, the normal functioning of the tap is disrupted due to certain problems. If a problem occurs, the part needs to be dismantled and subsequently repaired or replaced. In most cases, the faucet is not repaired, but replaced with a new one.

What is it responsible for and where is the stove valve located?

The VAZ 2105–07 interior is heated by means of a coolant (antifreeze, antifreeze), which circulates through the cooling system of the power unit. Heat is removed from the stove radiator, which is connected to the system through two pipes. Thanks to the operation of the heater fan, air is forced through the heat exchanger, heated and supplied to the vehicle interior. However, heat is not always required. So, in the summer, sometimes you have to turn on the window defrost to prevent them from fogging up. In this case, heating will be unnecessary. To be able to regulate the supply of warm air, the heating system has a stove tap. This unit is used to regulate the supply of hot coolant (coolant) to the heater radiator or completely shut it off. As a result, the fan does not heat or heat the interior when it is not required.

The stove valve is located directly at the inlet of the radiator and is secured with two bolts. Sealing of the connection is ensured by a rubber seal. The crane is controlled by a cable with a lever on the front panel. By moving the lever, you can close or open the locking mechanism, thereby regulating the flow of fluid through the radiator and the temperature of the air that enters the cabin.

When is replacement needed and which faucet to choose?

The need to replace the heater tap arises for a number of reasons. These include:

knot jamming;
leakage;
The air in the cabin is not warm enough.

It is worth considering these problems in more detail. Faucet jamming occurs due to blockage or scale formation when using water instead of antifreeze. The malfunction can be eliminated by cleaning or replacing the unit. Sometimes it happens that the control cable flies off the faucet. In this case, it is enough to return it to its place and secure it. If the valve is jammed, the control lever will move with great force. If the movement of the lever is slight, then this indicates that the cable has flown off.

The stove tap is controlled by a cable, which can sometimes fly off the lever on the tap

The most common problem with a faucet is a leak. As a result, a puddle of coolant forms under the front passenger's feet. If antifreeze is used in the cooling system, then when a leak occurs, an oily coating will form on the glass in the cabin. In this case, the coolant level in the system drops, which can lead to serious consequences - engine overheating. First you need to tighten the faucet mount to the radiator. If this does not help and the fluid leak does not stop, the unit usually needs to be replaced.

Antifreeze contains substances harmful to the human body, which indicates the need to eliminate the problem as soon as possible.

One of the types of stove tap is a ball mechanism

Having found out that the faucet needs to be replaced, you need to decide which part to choose. Today you can purchase a ceramic or ball locking mechanism. Therefore, owners who are faced with a choice have a question: what to choose? Based on the experience of Zhiguli owners, a ceramic part is more preferable, since ceramics are not subject to oxidation.

The ceramic heater valve is considered more reliable compared to the ball valve

As for the ball valve, it has to be changed 2 times a year - in spring and autumn. However, the choice remains with the car owner.

How to remove the valve of the VAZ 2105–07 stove

To begin replacing the unit, you will need to prepare a certain list of tools and materials:

open-end wrench for 7 and 10;
Phillips screwdriver;
new tap and rubber gaskets (if not included);
sealant;
rags;
antifreeze for topping up.

The procedure for replacing the mechanism on carburetor and injection machines is carried out in a similar way. Work is carried out on a cold engine in the following sequence:

We drain the antifreeze from the engine cooling system, for which we remove the crankcase protection, unscrew the radiator cap and the bolt on the cylinder block.
In the engine compartment, loosen the clamp and remove the heater supply pipe.

Remove the pipe from the supply pipe

For convenience, it is recommended to dismantle the right air duct

The heater tap control cable is secured using a bracket and a 7 bolt

The heater valve is secured with two bolts

The tap is dismantled along with the supply pipe and seal

Disconnect the tube from the old faucet and remove the sealing rubber

How to install a heater tap

The procedure for installing a new part is carried out in reverse order:

We replace the seals and screw the tube to the new tap.

It is recommended to replace faucet seals even if they are in good external condition.

In order for the faucet to open and close completely, it is necessary to adjust the cable

To improve the tightness, apply a little sealant to the supply tube before connecting to the pipe

After replacing the heater tap, fill in the coolant

Do not use too much force when tightening the crane mounting bolts. Otherwise, the rubber seals will be squeezed out, which can lead to a leak.

Replacing the stove valve on a VAZ 2105–07 is not difficult, but it requires attention and accuracy. Despite the simplicity of the procedure, it is better to give preference to high-quality products and trusted manufacturers, so that you do not have to deal with repair work again.

Typical breakdowns

The VAZ-2107 heater valve is replaced if the following breakdowns occur:

Excessive wear of seals and gaskets.
Destruction of the device body.
Presence of scale on the inner surface.
Gaskets and seals work normally as long as the cooling system is filled with high-quality antifreeze and its level is normal.
Scale forms when using water instead of special liquids.

When the housing is destroyed, a leak appears, it can be identified by the following signs:

Oily drops appear on the front and side windows.
Reduced antifreeze level in the tank.
Wet spots or puddles appear on the floor at the passenger's feet.

If the heater valve is leaking, try using a “10” wrench to slightly tighten the bolts. If you cannot get rid of the leak, it is necessary to replace the VAZ-2107 heater valve. Please note that antifreeze contains a large number of harmful components, so it is not advisable to delay repairs. If the tap on a car does not switch, there are several reasons for this:

If the adjustment lever moves without resistance, then most likely the drive cable has come loose from the clamps.
When the tap becomes clogged, the lever moves very slowly.

There is no point in trying to repair this device; it is easier to install a new one. On a VAZ-2107 car, it is not advisable to repair the heater valve - the cost of a new one is quite low. Some motorists, instead of purchasing a new faucet every year, install a water faucet. And twice a year they open and close it. Not very convenient, but reliable and durable.

We independently change the heating valve on a VAZ 2107

In our country, driving a car with a faulty heater in winter is strictly not recommended. This rule is true for all cars, and the VAZ 2107 is no exception. The fact is that the heater of this car has never been reliable and has always caused car owners a lot of trouble. And the heater valve, which began to leak literally a year after buying the car, gained especially notoriety among owners of “Sevens”. Fortunately, you can replace this part yourself. Let's figure out how to do this.

Final stage

After all the work carried out, it is necessary to once again verify the quality of the assembly. Pour antifreeze into the cooling system. In order for all circuits of the system to be filled with antifreeze, it is necessary that the front of the car is higher than the rear, and the heater valve must be open. As the engine warms up, be sure to crimp the pipes by hand to completely get rid of air pockets. At this point, the replacement of the VAZ-2107 heater valve is completed, the stove will operate in normal mode.

Purpose and principle of operation of the heater tap on the VAZ 2107

In short, the purpose of the stove tap is to give the driver the opportunity to switch between “summer” and “winter” modes of heating the interior. To understand what we are talking about, you need to understand how the heating system of the “seven” works.

So, the VAZ 2107 engine is cooled by antifreeze circulating in the so-called jacket. Antifreeze passes through the jacket, picks up heat from the engine and heats up to a boil. This boiling liquid must be cooled somehow. To do this, antifreeze is directed through a system of special pipes from the jacket to the main radiator, which is continuously blown by a massive fan.

Passing through the main radiator, the antifreeze cools and goes back into the engine for the next cooling cycle. The radiator (which in the early “sevens” was made exclusively of copper) becomes very hot after antifreeze passes through. And the fan, which continuously blows on this radiator, creates a powerful flow of hot air. In cold weather, this air is directed into the cabin.

In addition to the main radiator, the “seven” has a small heating radiator. It is on this that the heating tap is installed.

In winter, this tap is constantly open, so that hot antifreeze from the main radiator goes to the stove radiator, heating it too. The small radiator has its own small fan, which supplies heated air directly into the car’s interior through special air lines.

In summer there is no need to heat the interior, so the driver closes the heating tap. This makes it possible to use a heating fan without heating the interior (for example, for ventilation, or when the windows are fogged up). That is, a heating tap is necessary to quickly switch between small and large antifreeze circulation circles in the “seven” heating system.

When to change the heater valve of a VAZ 2107

The stove tap changes when it starts leaking antifreeze. This is doubly unpleasant due to the fact that the coolant gets on the carpet in the cabin. Often, problems with this part arise in the spring or autumn, when the tap is opened with the onset of cold weather, or closed in anticipation of warm weather.

A faucet that has been in one position manages to acquire rust and bad deposits, which damage it when trying to open/close. Therefore, it leaks and we need to think about how to replace the heater valve of the VAZ 2107.

Common fuel valve malfunctions

All malfunctions of the fuel valve on the VAZ 2107 are in one way or another related to a violation of the tightness of this device. Let's list them:

The fuel valve started leaking. It’s impossible not to notice: a large puddle of antifreeze forms under the feet of the passenger sitting in the front seat, and a characteristic chemical smell spreads throughout the car’s interior. As a rule, a leak occurs due to the fact that the membrane in the fuel tap has become completely unusable. This is usually observed after two to three years of operation of the crane;
The fuel valve is stuck. It's simple: the diaphragm fuel valve mentioned above is susceptible to oxidation and corrosion. Almost all drivers in our country close this tap in the warm season. That is, at least three months a year the tap remains in the closed position. And these three months are quite enough for the rotary rod in the faucet to oxidize and become firmly “stuck” to the body of the device. Sometimes it is possible to turn such a rod only with the help of pliers;
antifreeze leaking from under the clamps. On some “sevens” (these are, as a rule, the latest models), the valve is attached to the pipes with steel clamps. These clamps weaken over time and begin to leak. And this is perhaps the most minor problem with the fuel tap that a car enthusiast may encounter. To solve it, simply tighten the leaking clamp with a flat screwdriver;
The faucet does not open or close completely. The problem is due to internal contamination of the device. It is no secret that the quality of antifreeze on the domestic market of fuels and lubricants leaves much to be desired. In addition, counterfeit coolant is also found (as a rule, antifreeze from well-known brands is counterfeited). If the driver is used to saving on antifreeze, then gradually the fuel tap becomes clogged with dirt and various chemical impurities, which are present in abundance in low-quality antifreeze. These impurities form hard lumps that do not allow the driver to turn the valve stem all the way and completely close (or open) it. In addition, low-quality antifreeze can cause rapid corrosion of the internal parts of the standard "seven" diaphragm valve, and this can also prevent the fuel valve from being tightly closed. The solution to the problem is obvious: firstly, remove and thoroughly rinse the clogged tap, and secondly, use only high-quality coolant.

Heater valve malfunctions

Despite the improved design, the heater valve on the “classic” remains one of the most problematic components due to frequent failure.

Some car owners prefer not to use it at all, leaving it in the open position all year round, blocking the flow of warm air into the cabin only with a damper.

This is not a way out of the situation; heat will still flow, especially if there is even the slightest problem with the damper.

The most common causes of crane failure are:

oxidation of the locking mechanism;
violation of tightness.

In the first case, the heater valve simply stops working, making it impossible to open or shut off the pipeline. But most often another problem arises - a leak, which causes depressurization of the housing.

A clear sign of a faucet seal failure is a decrease in the level of coolant in the expansion tank, a damp carpet under the glove compartment, a specific smell, or a greasy coating on the windshield - the result of evaporation of antifreeze or antifreeze.

Most heater valve designs do not have a dismountable body, which eliminates the possibility of their repair.

Types of fuel taps

Since the fuel tap on the VAZ 2107 is an extremely short-lived device, after two years of operation of the tap the driver will inevitably face the question of replacing it. However, fuel taps vary in both reliability and design. Therefore, it is worth understanding them in more detail.

Diaphragm type tap

A membrane-type valve was installed on all “sevens” that ever came off the assembly line. It is very easy to find this crane for sale: it is available in almost every spare parts store. This part is inexpensive - only 300 rubles or so.

But the car owner should not be tempted by the low cost of a membrane tap, since it is very unreliable. And literally in two or three years the driver will again see coolant leaks in the cabin. Therefore, you should set the diaphragm fuel valve to “seven” only in one case: if the car enthusiast has not found anything more suitable.

Fuel ball valve

A ball fuel valve is a more acceptable option for installation on a VAZ 2107. Due to its design features, a ball valve is much more reliable than a diaphragm valve. The shut-off element in ball valves is a steel sphere with a small through hole in the middle. This sphere is attached to a long rod. And this entire structure is built into a steel body, equipped with two pipe threads. To open the tap, it is enough to turn its stem 90°.

With all the advantages, the ball valve has one significant drawback, which makes many drivers refuse to buy it. The sphere in the tap is steel. And although faucet manufacturers claim that these spheres are made only of stainless steel, practice shows that in aggressive antifreeze they very easily oxidize and rust. Especially during the long summer downtime, when the tap is not opened for several months. But if the driver is forced to choose between a diaphragm valve and a ball valve, then, of course, he should choose a ball valve. The price of ball valves today starts from 600 rubles.

Faucet with ceramic element

The most reasonable solution when replacing the fuel tap on a VAZ 2107 would be to purchase a ceramic tap. Externally, this device is practically no different from a ball and diaphragm valve. The only difference is in the design of the locking element. It consists of a pair of flat, tightly fitted ceramic plates placed in a special sleeve. This sleeve has a hole for the rod.

When the rod turns, the distance between the plates increases, opening the way for antifreeze. The advantages of a ceramic faucet are obvious: it is reliable and not subject to corrosion. The only drawback of this device is the price, which can hardly be called affordable and starts at 900 rubles. Despite the high price, the driver is strongly recommended to purchase a ceramic faucet. This will allow you to forget about antifreeze leaking into the cabin for a long time.

Water tap

Some drivers, tired of constant problems with the standard “Seven” fuel tap, solve the problem radically. They go not to the auto parts store, but to the plumbing store. And they buy an ordinary water tap there. Usually this is a Chinese ball valve for pipes with a diameter of 15 mm.

Such a faucet costs 200 rubles maximum. After this, the standard diaphragm valve from the “seven” is removed, a hose is passed into the niche where it stood, and a fuel valve is attached to the hose (it is usually secured with steel clamps, purchased at the same plumbing store). This design lasts a surprisingly long time, and in case of corrosion and jamming, the procedure for replacing such a tap takes only 15 minutes. But this solution also has a drawback: the water tap cannot be opened from the cabin. Every time the driver wants to use the heater, he will have to stop the car and climb under the hood.

Speaking about water taps, I can’t help but recall one story that I personally witnessed. A driver I know installed a Chinese crane under his hood. But he categorically did not want to jump out into the cold every time to open it. He solved the problem in the following way: he slightly expanded the niche in which the standard faucet had previously been located using ordinary metal scissors. He drilled a hole on the handle that opens the water tap. He inserted a hook made from an ordinary long knitting needle into this hole. He brought the other end of the spoke into the salon (under the glove compartment). Now, in order to open the tap, he just had to pull the knitting needle. Of course, such a “technical solution” cannot be called elegant. However, the man still solved the main task - not to climb under the hood every time.

Replacing the heating valve on a VAZ 2107

Having discovered a leaking faucet, the owner of the “seven” will be forced to replace it. This device cannot be repaired, since it is not possible to find spare parts for the VAZ membrane valve on sale (and besides, it is very difficult to disassemble the body of the standard membrane valve on the “seven” without breaking it). So there is only one option left: replacing the part. But before we start, let's decide on the tools. Here's what we need:

set of spanners;
pliers;
crosshead screwdriver;
new fuel valve for VAZ 2107 (preferably ceramic).

Sequence of work

First of all, you need to turn off the engine of the VAZ 2107 and cool it well. This usually takes 40 minutes. Without this preparatory operation, any touch to the heating tap can lead to serious burns to your hands.

Now the interior of the car opens. The screws holding the storage compartment and glove compartment are unscrewed. The glove compartment is carefully removed from the niche, allowing access to the fuel tap from the passenger compartment.
The hose through which antifreeze enters the heating radiator is removed from the tap pipe. To do this, the clamp that holds the pipe is loosened with a screwdriver. After this, the hose is pulled off the pipe manually.

Video: replacing the heater tap on the “seven”

Replacement result

After replacing the heater tap, check its operation by turning on the fan, opening the air intake damper completely, and opening and closing the flow of coolant into the heater radiator. When the flow is blocked, the temperature of the discharge air should drop significantly.

If there was a leak from the faucet before the repair, wipe the inside of the windshield with an alcohol solution to remove deposits and dry the carpet.

Now you can fully regulate the climate in the cabin, and not worry about a coolant leak, at least for some time.

Important nuances

There are a couple of important nuances that should not be forgotten when installing a new fuel tap. Here they are:

A new faucet always comes with several rubber gaskets. They must be installed without fail, even if it seems that the gaskets of the old faucet are practically not worn out and will still serve. The fact is that standard VAZ tires, from which old gaskets are made, last a year, or two at most. After this, microcracks appear in it, which are impossible to see with the naked eye. But gradually the network of cracks grows, and the tap begins to leak again. Therefore, installing new gaskets on the tap is mandatory;
The second point is related to the operation of the crane lever. Before closing the hood, be sure to check whether this lever works well. More precisely, whether the length of the cable is well adjusted, and whether this cable allows you to fully open and close the tap. It often happens that the old cable after installing a new tap turns out to be half a centimeter shorter, as a result of which the tap cannot close completely due to the tension of the cable. If such a picture is observed, you should remove the fastening tip, loosen the nut on it, and pull out a little cable from it (usually there is a reserve of a couple of centimeters in the tip). After this, the tip should be put back on the tap lever and check whether the tap closes tightly;
The third point is related to checking the tightness. Before closing the hood after installing the faucet, you should open the new faucet, then start the engine and let the car run for half an hour. During this time, the antifreeze will have time to heat up. If the tightness is broken somewhere, an antifreeze leak will occur, which will be difficult to miss. If no leaks are observed after running the engine for half an hour, the procedure for installing a new faucet can be considered complete.

So, even a novice car enthusiast can change the fuel tap on the “seven”. This does not require any special knowledge or skills. You just need to have a basic understanding of the design of the VAZ 2107 heating system and strictly follow the above recommendations.

How to replace the faucet of the VAZ 2107 stove

Procedure for replacing the faucet:

drain a couple of liters of coolant from the radiator;
remove the shelf under the glove compartment and the glove compartment itself;
remove the pipes from the stove, pay attention, if they are already hard or have cracks, then it is better to replace them;
unscrew the rubber seal and remove it from the pipes;
unscrew the nut of the air duct bracket;
unfasten the latches of the air duct and carefully remove it;
unscrew the bolt securing the cable casing and remove the cable;
remove the heater radiator with pipes.

Do not install the air duct, glove compartment and shelf right away until you have checked the system for leaks.

Add antifreeze or antifreeze to the level, do not forget to open the heater tap and remove the tube from the throttle valve on the injector (or from the manifold on a carburetor engine). Here is an article on “how to properly fill the cooling system of a VAZ 2107.”

We start the car, warm up the engine, remove the air lock, and add antifreeze if necessary. Let's look at the result. If there are no leaks, then install the remaining parts.
