I was posting about that connector a little while back as it appears even dealers can't help with a coupling so that it can be used to check your lp fuel side..
The valve unlike a traditional schrader isn't removable...or it certainly doesn't unscrew from the fitting.. I lashed something up so I could check my lp side pressure (on a 2.2 tdci ) using a pressure gauge.. Anyhow from memory I think the thread was an m12 with a 1.5mm pitch ( not able to physically confirm this atm ) so you may be able to find a cap that screws on.. I doubt they will be available without buying the pipework and fitting.. |

A tire valve cap will fit.

What size tyre are you talking about.. it's a m12 thread.. the pitch as I said I think is 1.5mm.. a standard tyre valve cap wouldn't do that..
That's on a 2.2tdci.. |

Ive seen a few asking where they could get a cap from so that is handy to know.. easily lost and the cap provides another layer of sealing and preventing back leakage if the valve is iffy...
