Red shell one looks like a no-go due to the access, but I'll bring some grubby clothes to work tomorrow and crawl under G-SEG. Only issue is I know I've got a broken one fitted to one car, somewhere, just can't remember which car it was!

Will find out tomorrow - it's not very high off the ground, the ground underneath is grubby as hell, the underside of that car is even grubbier (as EVERYTHING has been leaking on it) and I'm in smarter clothes than normal today! :lol:

Are you suggesting it can or can't be barbed? or just cross linking again, and again, and again

I could repair it, but i don't have the time or supplies to do it.

I also can't afford for a repair to fail and then have to get another cap later on, especially as it's going to be my daily again, wedding car and an 800 mile round trip for the "honeymoon".

I didn't check today Jay, I'll ferret in the garage tonight. Useful tips on a repair mind, I'd not snapped the end off a safety before, easily done I imagine.
I hear you loud and clear being a daily and the sole daily at that even more so when you got your mooney coming up!

Had a rummage through the spares i have here and i havent got a security valve, let alone the cap. I do seem to have picked up the switch out the end of one though.

Will keep an eye out.
