Genuine FORGE diverter valve?
« on: 20 December 2010, 19:24 »
Just received a Forge DV I bought on eBay.....  £20 bargain  :rolleyes:

Indeed looks like a Forge unit (even stripped it out and looks correct) but doesn't have the logo engraved on top like all the others I've seen?  Have I been done?   :undecided:

Don't know mate?  It's the style without the flats round the top (plain round) part that unscrews.  Exactly the same as:

But without the forge logo on top.........
