        None of my other valves have got one and it seems to be stopping me putting air in

                  Some brands of air valves will have these, others will just run with a tiny o-ring under the air valve which seals the air.


                  710 starvation is a mystery to me also.

                          the red bit is just a seal thats meant to stay in the cap , if ye flick it out of the valve with a pin then shove it back in the cap and screw the cap down mega tight then slacken it back off again ye'll find it will prob's never come out again.

                          had loadsa customers at work kickin off about these shitty valve caps. lol

                            also , if ya dont have a 710 cap on ya engine then you may need to fork out a hell of a lot of money to have ya engine taken out and re-fitted backwards... that'll probably resolve the issue


                            lol
