Most info I’ve read isn’t very accurate about when the tap was discontinued.
If you get a mirror and torch you can easily see what you have.

Couple of not very good pics here to show the heater box with and without the tap. In the pic with the tap you can see the rod that connects to the pivot of the mixer flap and you can see the mixer flap slightly open

So this tap shuts off flow of coolant through the heater core entirely? Instead of letting it flow through, and just rely on the selection flap to keep heat of vents ?
