Hi there,
Have just joined the forum and was hopping for a wee bit of advice please.
I have an old Glow-worm Space Saver Mark 2 heating system and just replaced the Sunvic Actuator and 3 port 22 mm valve which were both faulty and now replaced in the same order as when removed with new identical parts.
To fit the valve I had to remove the pipe which was connected just bellow the middle section of the boiler cylinder that connects to the B side of the 3 port valve (sorry but not sure what pipe connection its called) to enable refitting of the valve.
However, when the valve was fitted, I noticed a leak coming from the pipe that I previously removed to fit the valve but leaking from the part that is directly attached to the boiler cylinder. Have tried to tighten it but appears to be leaking at the seal.
My question is.., Can the fitting that is connected directly to the boiler cylinder be replaced or a new washer/seal fitted and if so what would I ask for at the DIY store ?
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Thanks
McBudman
