[6pack] Anti-run on valve after Strombergs are replaced with Webers

Henri, the AR valve has a narrow tube that goes to the banjo on the manifold
and on the opposite side has a larger diameter tube the goes into a port on
the bottom of the canister with a short piece of U shaped hose.

I got a note from Vance confirming that the valve is useless in this
application, I hope he doesn't mind me re-posting the body of that message
here:

        You are correct, the anti-run on valve is now doing space research.

        If you are having run on, try hooking the valve up to your Webers. The
float bowls are vented to atmosphere somewhere. Drill/tap the vent hole and
hook it up to your AR valve.
        The valve works by applying vacuum to the float bowl. This in turn
prevents air pressure from pushing the fuel out through the jet.
        If you don't want to mess with your Webers, there is a Rover valve
that be hooked to your booster vacuum line, part number ADU9535. Available
from Moss Europe last time I checked.

Stan,

I also have triple DCOE's and I am looking forward to the responses. I
also have problems with running-on and would like to find a solution.

The hose of my Anti-Run-on valve is not connected, and the electrical
not connected either at this time.

You mention:
" ...  so the AR valve just has its original  connections to the inlet
manifold via the banjo that also connects the servo and to the
canister"

Where is it connected to the canister, which outlet connection?

I had considered connecting the AR valve to the banjo on the manifold
but your comments indicate that it does not stop running-on. I suppose
that all it does is lean the fuel mixture a bit but not enough to stop
the running-on. I was hesitant to connect the AR Valve to the banjo in
case the valve leaked and caused a lean mixture to the engine.

Henri
