UK supplier of duck bill valve for chainsaw bar oiler?

[visor_down]

Hi all
Does any one know of a UK supplier of duck bill valves to fit OD of around 4-5 mm ? At a reasonable price!
Can find plenty of US suppliers, have tried manufacturer but they no longer support the saw and tried local spares places but none have them.
It has perished through years of sat in bar oil , so would of thought many would do the same and they would be readily available?!
They are pence but over a tenner from US plus a long wait.
Cheers

Not at the time of reading this, but can I ask what brand of chain saw is it?

I've just ordered bits for 2 saws from Abbey Garden spares and Garden and Hire Spares.

If you know what you're looking for you might find it on neither of them.

Edit: Should say they are 2 different retailers, got parts parts for a Chinese saw from one, the others for a Jonsered from the other.

It's an Alko 3800-S , think its 1987 model

Thanks I'll have a look. US sites quote a homelite part or oregon one that I think would do the job but on speaking to suppliers this side of the water for said companies they don't have them !

Sorry, if you're already signed up to this group: http://www.chainsawcollectors.se/phpbb3/index.php but if you're not they might be worth a try, very friendly group, world wide membership, someone there might be able to help you. Best of luck with it, always a shame to have a good saw sitting on a shelf for the want of a small part.
