I haven't got ETKA but what I _have_ got is a spare bleed screw. Last
weekend I had to dispose of some concrete rubble at the local 'civic amenity
site'. The rubble skip was alongside of a skip being used for scrap metal
and leaning against that skip was a well wrecked auto radiator (both header
tanks crushed, core with a hole in it). My eagle eye spotted the bleed screw
so I looked closer - couldn't identify the radiator - it was that well
wrecked - but 10 seconds work with a 13mm spanner gained me a bleed screw
identical to the one in my car. OK, so removing stuff from the site without
a license is an offence - but I got a spare bleed screw....
