HNY David.
It was an 89 deg stat, purchased from autodoc.
A wahler 3029.89. Compared to others, it’s not cheap at about £20, but I like it’s construction for insertion into the top hose, as it has a smoother body outer diameter.
I can take a photo of it (another spare I have) tomorrow if you like.
It does have a bleed hole in it, which a lot would consider not a good idea.
I placed it in the hose, making sure the bleed hole was at the top of the pipe.
Also, just so you know, my test results noted above were with a FBH operating.
If I get a chance tomorrow, I might do a comparative run with FBH isolated.
