Rib valve

Hi, I have recently acquired a Grand s330 rib which is in need of a lot of work and has been sat outside for many years!

I am having a problem with inflating it and it seems to have a peculiar valve fitting and I have tried as many different pumps and pump fittings as i can. I was wondering if anybody recognised it and what pump fitting it requires? Or if there is anytricks to making other pump fittings work 🤣


Thanks in advance

Insulating tape around any pump fitting built up to the correct diameter to be a push fit works fine in most cases
