I need a used rollover valve for a 86 Reliant or anything that will work. Original number is 4279941. Or anything else that will work with the original grommet. My grommet is in nice shape. I'm currently using a Chevrolet Blazer rollover valve secured in with silicone but don't know if it will hold up because it's not very tight. I tried to remove several original ones I found at the junkyard by using the screwdriver trick with the grommet still intact but still broke all of them. I see it was suggested the Jeep one https://www.ebay.com/itm/Crown-Automotive-Fuel-Tank-Vent-Valve-J5360058-/142529427485?epid=1042095382&hash=item212f6a781d:g:MrkAAOSwKsRWFf5d&vxp=mtr should work. Has anyone used this one before? Does it fit in the original grommet? Or if anyone has a used one I can purchase.

I thought I was the only one looking for this !! I have tried every parts supplier and no one has that exact valve. I am tempted to try the one you reference BUT I'm not sure about the 2nd fuel line. I can tell you to not bother to try and find that OEM valve anywhere........sorry for the bad news
