Eric, can I use the fuel valve in place of the Kero valve, are they the same ( I just received three fuel vales and no Kero start valve

I'm not Eric but I've interchanged them with no problem You do have to step the the output side of the solenoid from a 4mm to 3 mm because the kerostart input at the motor is 3mm. Step it down as close to the solenoid as u can. I would also make sure to relabel the solenoid so as not to confuse them when hooking them up to the ECU. Don't ask how I learned that;)

Good luck and enjoy your Cheeta, mine has been nothing but a pleasure.

David:
Valves ordered were the valves shipped. Yes, as my dear friend Zonker said, you can use the F valve for the K valve. Label to keep yourself out of difficulty. Second, carefully remove the 3mm FESTO from the suspect defect K valve replacing the out (exit) 4mm FESTO on the F valve. CAUTION. . .if you over tighten, the threaded body may or can break off. Also, check for the washer for each FESTO removed and re installed.
