    Wanted: Engine bleed valve

    Hello!

    I'm looking for a replacement engine bleed valve for my car - the little white screw thing that goes into the thermostat housing.

    Does anyone have one?

    Cheers!

    Cheers Chris, appreciate that! Will I be able to pick up some generic o ring seals from Halfords or a motor factor?
