 Hello List:

Just wondering if anyone has had recent experience in dealing with the 
fuel shut-off tap? I have replaced the cork seal in mine and still has 
some leakage. Guess they don't make cork the way they used to... 
Wondering if a neoprene or nylon seal in place of the cork would work 
any better?

Wondering if anyone has tried a work-round of this tap and used a more 
"modern" ball valve? Would like to keep the gas line fittings and the 
reinforced hose to the pump. Both use compression fittings, but trying 
to find a ball valve with these fittings next to impossible.

Thanks for any insights.
