Hi I have a 1926 model T. The handle on the fuel valve coming off the tank broke. Is there something else I could use as a replacement handle. This is the shut on and off for the fuel.
Thanks
Jerry

Is this the original type valve and sediment bowl? Finding a valve for parts or fabricating one from steel would be alternatives to purchasing the new reproduction valve & sediment bowl assembly.

How about a small vice grip? ;-)

I noticed that a parts source for early F model.Fordson tractors have a formed steel lever for its fuel valve but I don't know if they are the same as the 1926/27 Ts. (The Fordson House/ fuel tank)
