You can use a valve the same as the one in your windscreen washer lines. Its a plastic piece with a ball and spring in it. Covs have them for like 50c or something.

I had the same problems in trying to get one, went to a place that sells pet fish/aquariums - they have them & the clear plastic tubing is cheaper

So i'm gonna attempt my own FMI Spray but ive heard different things about needing a second motor??

Can someone advise if i just get a one way valve and extend the pipe from the previous (top mount) position donw to the FMI, will this work well??

Cheers.

You alreadly have everything you need in your pig. Just need to re-route the pipework and nozels to the front ( probably extend the piping a few feet ) and a one way valve as mentioned above.
