I haven't worked on a wet Mini so can you fill me in on the valve and fittings above?

I thought I was told that the valve shown above was just a high-pressure version of a Schraeder valve. If that's true you should be able to source the part from an industrial hydraulics supplier. Likewise, the other two fittings look like you could probably find parts at a hydraulic supplier that would work well as substitutes.

I tried this Google Search and Minimail are top of the results, but their website is down. Tried last night and again this a.m. and it's still down.

dkl : the bleed/fill units are fitted on the back of the rear subframe, you use one of these to pump up the suspension. Your remarks about hydraulic suppliers are interesting, I will follow up on that one.

There are plenty of hydraulic suppliers in my area (very agricultural in this part of France) but I suppose there's no point contacting them as all their threads will be metric and the fittings won't correspond with imperial threads ??? Sourcing from the UK must be the best option
