Don't need to drain anything down anyway do you? I usually take pressure off, turn pump valve off plus the other iso's and Bobs your Aunty. Am I missing something?
 
No, don't do it, don't touch that quarter turn pump valve, it'll leak. I guarantee it.

I pull the burner, dump the pressure and drop any excess water out the little nut under the pressure gauge. But it was prob the head anyway, a 002 and a 6 way junction box. Apparently you can only buy the full valve and it's 100.

doh, now he'll know, but as you say simple and sweet and how Id do it
 
If you come across the later Worcester combis that have the grey plastic Honeywell valves, these sometimes tend to stick and require servicing. You need to take off the head and get the cartridge out, clean and grease it up with heavy graphite or silicone grease then reassemble. Word of warning, be careful not to lose the tiny circlip that holds the piston in as it can go pinging off across the room if you are not careful.
