As expected
Part was exactly as expected. Could find it elsewhere for slightly less, but the timely service and piece of mind knowing it was likely the correct one was worth shopping here.

Seals were shot. Leaked fuel like an open valve. Unlike most other fuel on off valve this is a riveted so it can't be opened and rebuilt.

Had to remove the metal engine covers to get to the fuel valve, Replaced the fuel valve and line with new ones. Reattached the covers, Problem solved. Machine is like new again. Not very difficult but caution and some mechanical knowledge is helpful and suggested. Parts are a bit delicate and could be damaged if over tightened, forced,or roughly handled. eReplacementParts.com was a great source for the part, very easy to deal with and shipped quickly. I will be looking here next time I need any parts for my next repair, I do and will be recommending this site to all.
