Hi again.
Started another topic.
ok so i had problems refilling the air con, and the boyz told me to get new valves, so went to rip vaux. and bought 2 for £6 vat incl., now my question is:
HOW THE HELL DO I REMOVE THE BOTTOM ONE?

?

i did the one near the bulkhead easily but the one in front of the rad is impossible to take out, any advice
thanks guys

Mine came undone quite easily! I wish I'd saved the old valve to show exactly what came off ... I must've throw it cos I can't find it.

I'm sure it was a 15mm socket I used though.

After advice from Andy B I kept trying with mine. I couldnt get a socket to fit as it has a strange number of flats on it. In the end (it was knackered anyway) I used a pair of mole grips to get it off. It isnt on tight exactly, and came of easily. Just make sure you find a better tool to tighten the new one
