[alfa] 115 spider cooling system saga - bypass valves

[alfacybersite <acs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jon Pike asks: "$100,000 question...how the heck do you get this thing
(bypass valve) into a new hose,  when it looks to be 20% larger in
diameter than the hose? Boil  the hose and use a speculum?? Or can you
still buy bypass hoses with them embedded inside?"

********

Just bought a bypass hose from Alfa Parts ($21.50 retail). Nice lump  in
the upper portion of the hose for the valve (slides right in, if not,
use a small smear of silicone grease), but came without one. I suspect
the valves are NLA. Please don't throw yours away and send to:
