Default Re: Gas drip

I bought a repair kit for the fuel valve on my early ’28 OCPU from Snyder’s some decades ago. It had an original valve which was frozen stiff. I followed the directions and used EZ Turn like nkaminar suggested and it is still easy to turn and has never leaked. My ’28 roadster came with a repro valve which was hard to turn and leaked. I replaced that with several other repros but they never lasted very long until they started leaking. The last one I bought from Snyder’s about 2 years ago still turns easily and doesn’t leak. Maybe I'm just lucky now.
