Red face Desleration sensative valve

Hi ALL
Anybody know what should be the angle of the above as the book states it should be the same angle as the donner car. I am afraid my donner car is well gone now. Secondly should this be in rear brake circuit.

Yes to rear break circuit.

I will have a trawl through my pictures to see if I have a picture of the item in situ, when I get in from work.

Cheers Ginge

I think its "Deceleration Sensitive Valve" Andy. Hope it makes sense now, must say though it took me a while.

Same as Ash mine didn't need it and yes it does slope forward.
