I thought perhaps the brass one replaced the whole sleeve so I removed the sleeve but it still doesn't fit (apparently the sleeve isn't even threaded). I broke the plastic sleeve so need to buy a new one now.
Thats strange, are you sure you're trying to replace the correct one? The brass replacement screw goes on the same reservoir you pour the new coolant in.
