    Hi , I did not think the model was needed as the wheels were fitted to different models in 1977 , just thought someone with greater knowledge than myself could help .

    Even though you didn't fully answer my question, and, instead, gave me some snarky lip that I'm the asshat and that somehow I should know that it was a 1977 F without your ever stating that in this thread, I'll give you one Mulligan.

    I'd guess that your original valve stem (which looks to be steel in your picture, and would need seals on both sides to prevent galvanic corrosion, and can't be fully-tightened) is 105069, but has been superseded to 174166 (that only has a single seal, is a non-steel material, and is designed to be fully-tightened).

    (I'll add that MCP's photo of 174166 is a little misleading as the hex end of the retaining nut goes towards the valve stem cap end.)

    Unfortunately, MCP does not show a picture of 105069, but you should learn to use the MCP website as a resource (even if you buy your parts elsewhere) as they usually have pictures of the parts which can be useful, and it can help you find what other F models use the same part.
