manual

Your description of the valve made me laugh. People come up with some amusing names for things sometimes. You're saying the valve has a little head and a small head. If it's brass then it's a manual valve. If it's plastic it might well be a solenoid operated valve. The wires might be broken off so short you couldn't tell it had wires. Maybe you can find a link online somewhere to a picture of your valve.

SORRY I DONT HAVE ANY PHOTOS BUT I CAN EXPLAIN ITS A RAINBIRD VALVE NOT AN INLINE THOUGH THE PIPE GOES IN THE BOTTOM OF IT AND IT HAS A LITTLE HEAD AND A SMALL HEAD AND WHEN I TWIST THE LITTLE HEAD IT COMES ON, BUT THE THING THAT GETS ME IS THERE ARE NO WIRES.
