Has anyone installed a gas shutoff valve?

Post by electriccruiser »

I was wondering if anyone has installed a gas shut off valve. It seems when my voyager sits a few days it drips gas ever so slightly. I suppose the needle valves aren’t sealing perfectly, nor a bowl gasket too.

Yea, sorry mine does not have one and I have no drip, so I would not see the need to install one. I am sure someone else here will know more if they had a similar issue as urs and chime in :)

You could have bad needle valves or float bowl drain screw rubber O rings.
