Cold start valves Where to buy?

[citizensoldier]

I have 4 trucks here with this valve leaking onto the turbo.. Way back when I tried to take one apart and fix it and that did not work.. I also tried sealing one up with shellac goop and that didnt work. Does anyone have a supply of NOS ones? Or know where I can get some? Its the little valve thingy that mounts on the intake elbow below a spark plug ignitor and is supplied by a small pump mounted on top of the engine. I will call it old school cold start..lol..
The threads are some bastard size too so it make plugging it a pain.. You also have to take the elbow off to remove it because it hits! Who designed this thing!!! LOL...

I took mine apart and put a new "O" in it. That stoped the leak. Some one else on here did a theard on it and listed the number/size of the "O" ring.

After I took the C clip off I could not get that plate out and did not want to brake anything..So there is just a O ring behind that? I looked in all my manuals and nothing had a exploded view of the inside so I was afraid of wrecking it.. Hmmm.. anybody have the exploded view to post on here?

That plate is like a plug with the "O" ring on it. Thats why its hard to get out. If I remeber right.

Thanks for the info. I just looped my fuel line around to the injector return line and have left the valve in the intake. No fuel or air leaks for now. No cold assist either.
