    Hey all:) I have just bought a Pete Jackson valve and have no clue how to plumb it:confused: as far as idle check,pump saver etc... Can anyone help with a pic or two, or is there a link i can check out? I have tried finding info from Pete Jackson but no luck:( It's replacing a Cast "K type" enderle valve and i'm keen to try it out.
    Any help would be great!!!
    Thanks Jason:)

    Nitro or Alcohol?

    Too many other questions to ask here.

    Call Gorr Fuel Systems, and tell them exactly what you have, and are going to run, and PAY them to steer you right and save you money in the long run.

    The number is 928 855-8800. They advertise here, and have a web site.

    Check them out.

    Jackson "ALKY" Valve.

    Hi again!
    Emailed Gorr's with no reply thus far:eek:
    Yes, i believe it is an Alky valve and the only number i can find on it is the Patent Number.
    Anyone else care to take a stab as to how to connect this thing up?

    Any help is much appreciated!
    Jason:)

    Robert left you a phone number, why don't you call Gorr's?
    What you have may not be worth using, Ralph told me one time that most of those valves were for whipples and were mounted on the opposite side. So they actually work backwards if mounted conventionally.

    I have quite a few customers from Australia and NZ that get up at 3 in the morning to call me so we can have a 5 minute conversation and save 20 E-mails and tons of time.

    A lot of this stuff is better discussed on the phone than E-mail, I've found.

    I've had at least 7 different styles of Pete Jackson barrel valve housing and spool designs for nitro and alcohol pass thru my shop in the last 12 years.

    Which one do you have?

    Call the number!
