<p>Hi Rhys,</p>
<p>Did you check whether its the valve that's leaking</p>
<p>I never found the same type of valve, even when searching the only photo I found of it in results was the photo I put up.</p>
<p>The store in pilgrims link has a valve assembly where you drill out the old prv with a hole saw, then put in a whole new prv assembly, unless you were already ordering from there the cost of shipping would be far to much though.</p>
<p>The other option is you can buy a complete and new lid…</p>

<p>The other option is you can buy a complete and new lid for $25 from some home-brew shops in NZ, although personally I didn't like the quality of the lid so didn't get one, I still need to move my Co2 tank out of the fridge before I can use the keg so haven't got around to it yet.</p> You could try and ring Brewer…tag:www.forum.realbeer.co.nz,2013-02-27:1500433:Comment:1716562013-02-27T03:38:41.465ZJohn Hhttp://www.forum.realbeer.co.nz/profile/JohnHutchings

<p>Hi Sam,</p>
<p>I have the same setup with a slow leak - did you track down and replacements in NZ?</p>

<p>Cheers for the offer Matt, I think I'l just try and get a new corny style lid though.</p>
<p>If the new valve assembly from Pilgrims link is wide enough might be able to hole saw the old prv socket out and screw (with the nut) the new assembly in.</p>

<p>Had a look last night; my old lid is sort of like that but the PRV is completely different, seems shorter and has a flipper to manually release the pressure.</p>
<p>I just checked again and now I don't think the adapter in Pilgrim's link will work. I would send you my old flipper type PRV but I think that might be too short and when I bought it the seller specifically mentioned that they thought that the PRV would be leaking, but you are welcome to try it. Sorry I can't be of much more help…</p>

<p>Hi Mattd2, does your old lid look like this?</p>
<p>The hole that the prv seals underneath of lid seems to be smaller than normal on this lid and it doesn't have that mini pipe / tube underneath the lid which the normal ones have. I saw a couple of prv's advertised as universal, but even if the ends the right shape for sealing the hole, I don't see how it will be long enough for a normal lid but short enough for this lid…</p>

<p>Have you got a photo of the lid? I know there are some "old" style of PRV that are no longer made but I thought someone had started making universal replacement ones. I actually bought one of the older style lids with the no longer produced PRV because I was going to use it for another purpose (never got around to it though!).</p>

<p>Looks like they have some good stuff, unfortunately none of these pressure relief valves though, I can't seem to even find a photo of one anywhere, it still hold pressure although rubber has lots of little cracks that might harbour nasties, looks like I might have to find a whole lid as there doesn't appear to be any for sale that fit</p>
