    I am currently having a really hard time trying to track down one of these valves's, Ferrari part number 166607 . Ferrari no longer stock them anywhere in the world as far as I have been able to find out!! the original manufacturer has also gone out of business. It was made by a company called sirio, there are two sets of numbers on it , B 367 and 1.9727 . I'm sure this valve must fit another vehicle on the road so if anyone could identify it and possibly point me in the right direction it would be a great help .

    Try the Saab dealer looks like the same part as on the 93. Although Saab will call it something different obviously.

    Search that part number and the following was posted on Ferrari Life:

    "Give Stewart Roden at Scuderia Ecosse a try Scott, tell him you're a friend of mine, his landline is 01506 890724 as he has a few F50 clients so maybe able to assist."

    Two point five other options:
    A) JBWeld on the outside
    B) brass sleeve on the inside
    C) both A and B.

    Thank you for replies , I have now over come the problem by having new valve bodies made in aluminium by a engineering friend of mine , I have reused the floats . I have tested the valves and they work perfectly . I did look into sleeving and bonding the original valve but due to the fact that it is buried inside the tub of the vehicle and does take a bit of a battering while trying to refit the tank I decided against it as i did not want to risk fuel vapour escaping into the engine bay .
    If anyone else is looking to change their F50 fuel cell I do have a number of spare valve bodies available if required .
