I have had good results using the Viton tip float valves from Bratton's. A word of caution though, Bratton's like any retailer, is at the mercy of their supplier. Before using them I take them apart and clean out any residual machine chips found inside.

My observation has been that the two-ball float valves do not work well. I have seen a number of then stick shut. It may have something to do with what is in the gasoline here in Southern California.
