Hi I have a 2003 s400 that has developed a leak, it is leaking round the ball at end of fill valve, does the fill valve need replacing ? and is that straight forward ? I have tried trying to undo but don't seem to keen on loosening lol
thanks

Re: air leak
Sounds like you need a new one.
Julian Bond may have some, so give him a ring.

DO NOT loosen (OR try) when the cylinder is charged / pressurisedBobbyP1954 wrote: ↑Wed Aug 31, 2022 1:48 pmI have tried trying to undo but don't seem to keen on loosening

safety-first with hpa, ALWAYS vent / drain before work

ps. sounds like a new 'foster' coupling / fill-valve is needed

Bleugh!
it is my firm belief that people who declare they have a 'bigger signature than' someone are trying to make up for something else
