Grahamgl Posted September 30, 2021 Report Share Posted September 30, 2021 Gentlemen, I do not know how or why but the cap retaining spring clip has disappeared off my PCV, the cap is currently being held in place by a couple of zip ties. Does anyone have spare clip that they could sell me? Thanks Graham Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lebro Posted September 30, 2021 Report Share Posted September 30, 2021 It would not be hard to make one out of some suitably sized piano wire (from a model shop) Bob Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Z320 Posted September 30, 2021 Report Share Posted September 30, 2021 (edited) this is why I use a spring from a "Weck" compote jar, common as long as an empty compote jar was money worth and used again the next year Edited September 30, 2021 by Z320 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Z320 Posted September 30, 2021 Report Share Posted September 30, 2021 Hi Grahan, this is the clip, one size for all older jars, red circled you see the badge "Weck", framed by a strawberry. The wire legs are too long, so they have to be shortend and bended new. A look under my bonnet is always worth a laugh because at germany all have been grown up with "Weck" jars. Huuuu - strawberry compote with pancakes has never been my thing... Ciao, Marco Quote Link to post Share on other sites
