Digsit:
Its a good question. Some chaps on here have 'developed' a removable cover that slips over the valve when you are planning a bit of a paddle :wink:

You can make em out of the right size yoghurt pots (ask davidlandy) apparantly

thermidorthelobster:
I'd just seal it up, ideally with a metal disc the size of the outlet;  I've done it on both Discos and it didn't cause any problems at all.

dangercreek:
Thanks guys, the reason that i asked, would it have any effect on MPG?

makes no difference to mpg - its there amongst other things to let all of the dead flies out that get sucked into the air intake - give the little tit a squeeze and out they come!

I made a cover for it from an actimel bottle!  works  - exactly the right size!
