I know this was a topic many times, but my search feature does not want
to work. I had replaced my right side fuel valve with one purchased
from Harpers about 1.5 years ago. This fuel valve now keeps clogging up
on itself. A disassembly shows that the circular rubber inside of it is
breaking apart and clogging up the holes for the fuel to flow through.
Thought I had this fixed after the 1st disassembly/repair, but it just
did it again. I just ordered a new replacement left valve as that one
appeared to be leaking after disassembling it and cleaning it out (it is
original). Now, the right side is clogged and the left side works and
does not seem to leak anymore. So whats the story with these valves,
should I get them from a particular source or continue to repair them as
the clog/leak?
