leak through handle of push fit service valve

[Nobbyone]

Hi,

Can anybody tell me if this service valve on can be replaced or repaired as it leaks from the spine of the handle when closed. I looked on-line to try to match it with an existing make but with no luck. Looks like a compression to tap connector type.



Does anybody know if it can be repaired/tightened/replaced with a modern system?

Thanks for your help.

Yes sorry pal, had to rush out, yep put a normal sv on it with a new connector and washer to the valve.
Those plasic valves are ok untill you move them, but saying that the brass ones can somtimes leak.

just had another look at the pic, its a bit unclear but what is your valve connected to upstream
