I do but I have no idea what it is. I believe it is factory and it only let's you draw from one tank at a time not both.

Mine was stiff when working it back and forth on the trailer.
Once I got it on the water and under power, it was amazing!

i use ball valves at each tank.  i usually run with both of them open but it favors the drivers side since its the shorter run.  once that side is at about 1/8 i shut it off and run the passenger side. 



on my dash i have an on-off-on switch... each "on" side goes to the tank sender and then the output goes to the gauge so i can switch my fuel gauge to see both tanks level.

You can buy an electric fuel selector valve at napa that is only about 20 bucks and only take a power and ground to run.

You know I am not sure, and have never noticed.  I do know they work very well  and we use them at work on the roadsters and such that have dual saddle tanks under the bodies.
