New style float valves

[FRANK PKNY]

I’m posting just for an informative note. These replace needle seat valves for many carburetor applications. They are made for ethanol fuel. I’m using them in three applications and feel like they are working great.

I have found that they work until they don't.
I packaged one up and sent it back to the vendor.
After I got it out, I was able to unstick the ball.

Are you sure you are talking about the same thing? I remember some float valves with "balls" (Grose-Jet?).These have a disk, but I don't see a "ball" here.

There is no ball in this style valve! Are you talking about a Goss style valve?

I have used them in the past but had to modify them to use on Stromberg 48 carbs.
They didn't make them for that exact application at that time.
They flow slightly more than a stock one and they absolutely never leak by.
I ran 20% nitro with them.

Bad on me. I was mistaken.
