Fuel line on/off valves
« on: March 07, 2012, 10:23:07 AM »
Need two of them. Anybody got em or know where to buy?

I have a manual tank selector but I wanna run both tanks at one time and shut off the empty one when low.

Maybe I'm just better off getting the Imco like what came in the boat and plug the harness back in.. think those is around $400.

I would think manual on off valves would be like $30 or so.

I am pretty sure you'll be fine with the brass ones from HD or McFadden-Dale, I am using them and have been for two seasons now. If they go bad, i'll replace them but no signs of issues yet.

That should work jsut fine. I personally prefer "Y Blocks" instead of "T Intersections" for flow reasons but I think you will be ok. This is what I used, http://www.jegs.com/p/JEGS-Performance-Products/JEGS-Billet-Y-Blocks/755315/10002/-1.
