Default Re: Here's Pictures of the Model A Fuel Filters

Tom,
Thank you for sharing your pictures.

Some thoughts on replacement shut off and filter:
1). I only recommend the USA made replacement shut off (or rebuild your original).
2). Some of the early replacement did not last very long. Those shutoffs are identifiable, in that they had a seam in them.
3). I replaced a shut off valve once, that did not have a pencil filter, but it did have a short pipe, which kept any rust debris on the bottom of the tank from entering the shut off.
4). I usually put some gas resistance sealer on the threads, before installing the valve. Be careful not to get any sealer on the filter screen.

Neil
