Fuel Selector Valve

[asa400ex]

Anybody know where I would be able to find this fuel selector valve? Not having any luck.

What other options are out there? Really don’t want to go to a manual valve.

This would be one option but I dont think its Marine rated.

I'm pretty damn certain that that is the same fuel valve used on the carbureted bull nose and brick nose ford trucks with the dual fuel tanks.

I believe Pollock made that valve and it’s been obsolete for years

IMCO makes a better unit that has an over-ride feature in case of electrical failure.

I had that same unit. It took a crap on me also. I went with the above mentioned IMCO selector. The manual switch on it is a plus in case the selector switch stops working.

Probably still the same but the company probably dropped an expensive insurance policy so it's now no longer "Marine rated"

I had to figure out which port went to which tank according to my switch on the dash was the trickiest part. I can’t remember if I had to mount it upside down either. But I did get it all matched up.

Can someone help me with one of these? I have a 1992 Advantage and it recently stopped working. Can I order a new one? I believe it has to be a 3 port and all the shops up here only have 4&6. Thanks for any advice.

Does the manual lever move when the electrical signal commands a tank switch?

Thanks for reaching back out. Will my existing pigtail plug right in? Hopefully not a dump question.

 

[wzuber]

Welcome to the boards Bubba.

See post #7 above. A "plug n play" replacement may still be available.
The imco unit appears to be wired differently then your existing unit.

 

[OLDRAAT]

Spend the money for an Imco or another marine approved brand for peace of mind.
All should have a wiring diagram.

 

[boat527]

This one is over 20 years old..still works.and its rebuildable..

Made in the USA ..hmmm

You’ll have to cut the pigtail and wire direct to the IMCO. As long as you identify the current pigtail wiring it’s fairly simple.

Thank you. I figured that’s what I have to do. Appreciate the help guys.
