Need to clean mine up so I can actually see what is part of pipe, and what is part of valve, then I should be able to get my head around it :y

Mine wasn't particularly tight, they don't need to be .............. but neither does an oil filter cap and we all know how tight they can be.  :-X

Just use your socket over the top, IIRC the bit that it screws to is 17mm across, the valve is 15mm so it won't go any further.  ;) ;)

I asked if they came complete with a seal, he didn't know so I ordered a separate seal .......... so obviously it came with one!  :y :y
