Valve extension ?

[Ron B.]

Just recieved an FS20X7T from Van's. The information that came with the valve from Andair say that an extention for the newer type valves , as I have, can have an extention added without sending the valve back for retrofit. How would one determin which extention he needs and are these extentions the ones Aircraft Spruce sells?

Ron,

Check out this link on Tim's page...it may or may not help. I didn't use the extension but mounted the valve to the console without any issues...others swear by the extension...

If that doesn't make sense try contacting Andy. He's really pleasant to chat with. Just remember it's UK time. ie UTC

Thanks guys,
Mike , I can't believe that I did not remember Tim had his fuel system geared this way. I spend a couple hrs every night going over things there. He purchased his from Wicks,so I doubt it's exactly the same as mine?
I put a desperate plea into ACS for them to look and see if it's available. My experience with ACS is if it is much of an issue they just answer " we cannot get that part". Hopefully not this time.
