    Find a plumbing supply dist. in your area. Chances are someone has an old bleeder valve or two kicking anound.. The bleeder valve itself unscews from the radiator.

    Make certain you put a good penetrating oil on it and let it soak in good. Last thing you want to do is break it off trying to change it.
