mine is a typical brass body ball valve with nylon seats.could be found at aboutany pipe supply or hardware store.seems to work fine in test.haven't got tofly it yet but soon.I think it is a better option than a plug valve.( and by theway I used the teflon paste sealer in a tube from the auto parts store-seemsto hold perfectly so far with 100 L.L.)I mounted it crossways under the tankoutlet and made an extension rod handle to bring it back under the front panelso it can be operated without reaching clear down under the tank.

If I correctly understand what you are asking for, you can use the ones available in the plumbing section at your favorite big-box home store. There was an active discussion on the list about these 4-5 years ago, and the conclusion was that they are the same valve that A.S.S. sold at the time for about 1/8 the cost. I believe there are several out there flying on Piets now.Kip GardnerOn Jul 18, 2009, at 8:39 PM, Chet's Mail wrote:> Does any one know of a source for a inlive brass body plug fuel > shut off vave.
