Hi guys,
I'm trying to fit a brake line restrictor valve from a Mondeo to my Sierra master cylinder and I require a 'M12x1 female to M10x1 male brake
connector'.
Does anyone know where I can get one?
Cheers,
Steven.
Are you talking about the G valve ? Sorry can't think of the proper name for it.
If so then bin it, no point fitting it on such a light car.
Got a picture ?
It's not a g valve. It is a non adjustable restrictor that works on pressure.
Description
I had a think, im going to cut the brake line and put a new m12x1 3/16 male end on.
thanks all.

As fesycresy said.... ditch it!
How much do you think the front of these cars "dips" under braking anyway!
Cheers,

The front of the car doesn't need to dip for the G-valve to work
The weight transfer occurrs wether the suspension dips or not. How much is related to the length of the wheelbase and height of the centre of
gravity.
The G-valve has to be installed at a vehicle specific angle which will be different on a Se7en and a Sierra. Best not to use one.
The valves in the picture are purely pressure based. They usually cut off the pressure above a set point. They come in 25/30/35 bar flavours.
