Anyone with an idea how to remove the purge valve from the pipe at the left?
I managed to brake the right part so I need to remove the valve for rapair or replacement...
The valve can move clockwise and anticlockwise with the pipe held steady but it seems to be very tightly secured. Is is just matter of force?

And another thing. The valve is not available for the 1.6 Stilo as a seperate part, you need to buy the whole line (hell no). It is a Marelli part and it looks exactly the same as the one that is used in Puntos, Ceicento's etc which is available in the market. Can I use one of those?

Thanx in advance!

Boiling water / heat gun is about the only way you can get nylon hose off a barb.
