You are right Bill. Looks too complicated to me also. I will be
avoiding
all
the sump tanks, remote controlled valves or the $400 Andair jewel,
which
BTW
has very small ports. I just use this very nice 6 port valve and all of
the
above complications go away. It has ON/OFF L/R and Both positions with
very
nice detent when centered on the port.

Bulent, If you've put up the part number and purchase info on this valve
before, please forgive
the request to repost, but I can't find it.

Rick, the valve was made to my specifications by Anderson Brass for my "air
boat". They do not have it on the shelve. It is Instrumentation 6 port
valve
panel mount. Took few weeks to make it and is very well made. We buy lots
of
valves from them and they do good work. Did cost about $150 nowhere near
the
Andair and solved all the complications of sump tanks etc. If you need more
info, let me know.

Bulent why don't you have a bunch of these made and sell them.
I'll buy one.

       Bulent add me to a group buy list for this fuel valve. Just tell me
  how much and where to send it.

      Kelly Troyer


No need to send money. I'll let you know when they are ready.
Again, they will have: Left / Right / Both and OFF selector with feed and
return to the same tank.
