Fuel valve

Post by ghostflyer »

Just received a email from Mc Farlane quoting the availability and cost of the new valve. Retail is over $4000 dollars and price to us is over $1000. Gasp, pant ,pant. Where is my blood pressure pills? In their email they stress about the corrosion that’s in the interior of the original valves. This is true as mine has some pitting everywhere. At least we have choices now. Fuel smells in the cabin are not good.
