I see this is an older thread, but I have related question. Is anyone can help me identifying valves that can be fitted on the same spot where Viking valve was/is installed? Other words are there any valves compatible with Viking ones? I measured the seat (seal) installed in the suit as best as I could. The inner hole diameter is about 29.92 mm. The inner diameter of the groove(not sure how to call it - pressed in ring, where part of the valve goes to seal the connection) is about 42.94mm, the outer diameter is 47.58 mm. Thank you.

It seems like very little/no valves will fit the same spot where Viking valve is installed. It is hard to find repair kits. At some point it almost doesn't make sense to look for a repair kit as the price for one is almost the same as for the new/refurbished valve. One place that most likely will have your Viking valve-related issue resolved is comdive.com. Bob is extremely helpful and friendly person in my opinion.
