When air stops coming out of valve, remove core from

7. Push bladder into tank far enough so that you can get
into tank with a dowel rod.
8. Soap the outside of the new valve and mount it on
the end of a piece of 1/4" or 5/16" dowel rod. Push
the valve up past the bladder into its mounting hole
in the top of the tank. Push it through as far as it will
conveniently go; leave the valve cap on to protect
the threads on the valve.
9. Rap the end of the dowel sharply with a hammer to
drive the valve into position. Be sure the shoulder
on the valve seats against the tank head (the ridge
around the valve body should be all the way through
the hole in the tank head – see Figure 6).
