Hello All,

After sealing a small leak in my Mk2 RH suspension 'plumbing' (with a metal sleeve and screw clamps), I now need to build a suspension pump. I can do this from a spare master cylinder unit (salvaged from my Mk1). Mounting it on a board and setting up a lever should be straight forward but the trick seems to be finding the female Schrader valve fitting. Has anyone done something similar and any ideas as the where I might be able to order the fitting?

Thanks, Mike Loveday (located in Sydney, Mk1 and Mk2)
