A quick fix is to disconnect the heater completely.
At the back of the head in the engine compartment simply disconnect the heater pipes and connect them back onto each other on the head. Have a look you will see what I mean
I am sure other people will give you alternative fixes

Hi Mojo
Your heater valve is rusted or stucked in the open position. Just fit a ball valve in the heater supply hose and then shut-off the water. With this mod you still has a heater for the winter by just open the valve during the winter. I got one installed in my Lada and enjoy the heater during the winter
Regards.
