Messagethere is a motor driven valve from JC whitney that is available- it
will stop in whatever position that it was last in if you lose power- used
to switch between main and aux tanks on a car I think, I looked at it but
never bought one.
By the way, I have a really nice unused Andair fuel shut off valve for sale
if anyone is interested- it has the positive lockouts and all that good
stuff. I decided to plumb my system another way- it is a beautiful valve
sure to compliment any interior and will sell it at a good discount from the
$170 price Andair sells them for.

Not one I'd want to use. I would think you'd want it to be fail-safe
open? So, you'd have to wire it around the master switch if you wanted to
close it and leave it closed--- then the solenoid will draw current to keep
it closed (against the spring that wants to hold it open) for hours/days.
Can we say "dead battery". Maybe there's a different valve configuration
available that I haven't considerd but the typical electrically actuated
valve wouldn't be my first choice.

I have installed this unit- it is well crafted- I will try to use a wire
push-pull arrangement on it, but I am pretty sure that it will be emergency
off only and resetabble by opening up the compartment and turning the valve
by hand since it is relatively stiff. I did not use it at the firewall
though, because after you grind away the back side to allow the threads to
make it to the engine side to attach the nut, there is no way to swing the
arm because you have a little tunnel there. so mine is just outside of the
sump tank. I liked the fact that it was already set up with #6 flare
fittings.

I ordered my fuel shutoff valve from Velocity. It is just like the
one in all the velocity pictures. Brass with two 3/8" npt fittings.
Today I got the Summit Racing catalog and it has an aluminum fuel
shutoff - AN fitting - bulkhead penetrator, all in one.

Does anyone have experience with this valve? Any thoughts about using
it?
Thanks,
Andy
