YAM 230 ti - get valves ?
Folks,
I've got this old YAM 230ti tender.
I'd like to renew the valves in it.
Anybody able to tell me what they are? They don't seem to be the same as the popular ones that are listed on the shop sites...

Also if anybody could tell me if they are a type that I can just screw out the backplate on .. or is it a case of cutting the fabric?

The fabric would appear (the the untrained eye) to be PVC. What can I safely use to clean it?

Thanks

Vida

Looks like a Boston valve to me, or at least very similar.

Screw-in inflation valve as fitted to early Plastimo, Quicksilver,...

I would hazard a guess you have found exactly the right valve. Check the thread and body dims against yours, if in doubt give Ribstore a ring.
