--- Quote from: "Timbob" ---That may be possible, probably difficult due to guests. Where bouts in fife are you? A noise from the pump through the screwdriver would confirm it as the problem you reckon? Need a bigger pole! Thanks for the offer, most kind.

I have an old Stethescope I use just for this type of thing. great for finding dead bearings, clickly pumps and all manner of odd noises.
Timbob:
Lochgellys a fair treck. Hope you dont mind if i see how my misguided fumblings go this weekend before taking you up on your kind offer. Please dont think that im doubting your opinion/ knowledge, but im keen to know how you fit these valve stem caps on the off chance the repair costs nearer a tenner than a hundred.
Thanks, Tim
Saffy:
--- Quote from: "Timbob" --- Do I need a Valve spring compressor and how do you fit them? Back off the rocker arm and slip them over the stem jobber? No idea really. Any suggestions much appreciated.

For reference no spring compressor required and your guess is spot on, back off the rocker arm and they pop onto the stem top. Very easy to drop into place you rather not want em to be.
Timbob:
cheers fella, much obliged
