There is an 045 learnt listed on the Cox info section on the sites left side.

Learnt something new today.

Cox international ?

I have no idea as to needle hole size or thread pitch but there may be the info in the engine section in the left columb of the site, below today's thread names etc ..

That's the engine I can't find much info out about it I can't even find a picture of the mysterious needle valve, no spec info its like looking for a needle in a haystack but I'll keep trying

I've just had confirmation back from cox International that the 049 tanked needle valve can be used as a substitute for the 045 engine 👍
