stageonesimmo Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 Yeah thats the one - I've got 2 fitted to mine - only thing to watch out for is the 'O' ring can spread and pop out if over tightened - the original placcy jobs have a slight lip to stop this but these brass plumbing ones are designed for fittings where the 'O' ring sits recessed, not on a flat surface like the 'stat housing or rad tank...............
