Have removed the valve today...if you still need it?

How much do you want phil and as your stripping it dwon do you have any spare torq bits. I could do with as many as possible, preferably the smaller ones I think there either m6/8. There the ones that fit the E8/E10 torq bits!!

I know the ones you mean - and all mine "died" - had to remove the whole manifold to get the valve off in the end.  I'd use something a bit better on reassembly myself (be it cap head/hex head/stainless). The valve itself has a set of hex flats - will measure up tomorrow as i used an adjustable - but guess you can get in with a crows foot spanner or even a oil filter strap.  As soon as it starts to turn, its fine, suggesting its a taper thread to me.
Hows about a fiver, posted?  That works out at 2 cans of Guiness for the skinned knuckles and the postage cost...

Forgot to add - if you want the flying saucer valve (the plastic one) as well, drop me a PM and i'll rescuse it in the morning before the remains of the car go to the crusher...the whole system must have still been OK on mine as the SAI fan packed up before i got the car and it hadn't melted anything.
