Avon A7 valve to fix ...

[Refueler]

Its one of those jobs I hate .. always worried that I lose part inside the tube !!

I know how to do it ... how to prevent the 'pin' dropping inside the tube ... but it still does not mean I like the job !

I cannot understand how someone could honestly design such a valve ! Even cheapo Chinese dinghys usually have all in one replaceable valve units that just screw into the outer that's fixed to the dinghy.

I did one last week, a PITA, but it sealed first time so happy

Reckon I'll order a couple of kits ... best get on with it !!

Did you replace all ? Pin - Spring and valve diaphragm ? or just the diaphragm ?

I got the whole kit, so did it all...or did I, might of just been the diaphragm, will have a think. There are U tube videos of course
