They are made that way to stop you puttng in them blue thingy's, they rot the valve on the end of the syphon plunger.
Its probably cheaper to replace the whole unit these days than to fit a new syphon.

Later wondered if this was right or not, what if there was a problem and a plumber needed to get to the bits inside?? Should you be able to lift the lid off?? Please can someone tell me, I want blue water  |
