Brad=> I also see a bit of fuel leaking intermittently => from around the shafts for the butterfly valves. This is indeed a leak, but the more important component is the air leaking *in*. => Is the bushing rework simply a matter of reaming => out the old and pressing in new? Essentially yes. => Are the new bushings part of a rebuild kit? No. => Where might I obtain these rebuild kits? Ask around at your various FLAPS, you (and they) may be surprised at what they can find in their books.

Every member of this list should print out this quote in large letters and stick it to the fridge. => cutoff valve ... If I need one, where can I get one?
