I need a exhaust valve stem for an SPA P12 but can't seem to get a hold of him. Does anyone know where I can find one ? Thanks much.
I think Mike at Citrus Airguns brought some of them in years ago and my guess is that he just may have some parts or make you something.

What are the dimensions of the valve stem? Would a m-rod poppet suffice? Readily available and can be slightly modified to your needs, I think it would cost 5-6$ shipped from Crossman. Just a thought.

I don't have the dimensions of an Mrod poppet to compare so I took some measurements and pictures. If anyone can measure an Mrod poppet and see if it will fit or if anyone can make one (or two) I'll appreciated it. Thanks in advance.
OAL= 1.753"
Rod dia = 0.117"
Rod length = 1.239"
Head dia = 0.346"

Guys have complained for years about him not responding to emails. I think there are two sides to his business and the airgun side takes a back seat.

Marauder poppets are...
OD: .34"
OAL: 1.488"
Stem OAL: 1.07"
Stem DIA: .124"~
Close, but no cigar

You replacing the pictured poppet because of leaks? If so I would try to resurface it personally. I throw in a wooden dowel of similar size of my tube ID to reduce volume when testing a seal on newly made poppets, unless you have confidence in your seal. Makes my room smell like a lumber yard when I release the air after testing 
Can always remove equal amount off the rod to what is removes from the poppet to keep dimensions equal. Plenty of meat on both to do some work, unless its broken and I am not seeing it.

Customer Service has never been one of his strong points.
His business model has been selling not supporting his products.

I just ordered a bunch of parts from her including the one you are looking for. The valve is a combination of parts number 30(valve body) & 31(valve needle) on the exploded P12 diagram. I paid 0.40 cents and 0.80 cents for them respectively so $1.20 for the part in your photos.
I ordered $65 worth of parts and almost got a complete gun minus the barrel. Shipping is cheaper if you tell her to use China Post instead of courier.
So nothing got lost in translation, I included the P12 diagram and an excel chart to show the part number and quantity that I required.
It took a few days for her to respond but she was quite happy to help. China Post took about a month before I got my parts.
I paid for my order via PayPal.
Hope this helps.
PS...MrodAir is still around. It took a while to get a response but he is still around. I was able to order some springs from him too.
