That seemed like a good idea, would eliminate disturbing a connection outside the tank. Bought a new valve before discovering how inaccessible the pipe to valve connection is but . . . . the valve body and the threaded "tail" won't separate, the valve body just turns rather than unscrew

I now have a float valve that shuts off! Finally got a chance to have another go at it and did as you suggested Mick, separated the valve body from the tail on the new valve, removed the old valve body and swapped them over. No longer have to leave the cold tap in the bathroom sink dribbling.
