New around here..
Sold My 88 Bronco , now working on a 73' Bronco...
I was wondering if there was any way of testing the Electric Fuel Tank Selector Valve?
Reason for testing is because I cannot get the Aux tank to work on the Valve. The Main (rear tank) works fine but , when switching to Aux, the gauge works but, the Selector isn't switching..
I do not much about these Selector valves..
I have 12v of power on the hot wire coming down from the dash switch to the selector valve, when it is disconnected. When that hot wire is connected to the valve, I have 4.5v. This would be when I am on the main tank. When switched to the aux, I have 0.00. Which , with what I read , is correct?
I have installed a new ground and hot wire. 18g..
I have also notice that I have slits in both the rear and aux filler hoses . As well as the other hose/line located on the rear tank that goes back up to the filler neck. That hose is wasted.
I am in the process of ordering those. I am wondering if I should order a new Selector Valve as well? I hate just throwing parts at a problem but, I do think my Valve is toast.
So, I am hoping there is a way to test the Valve.
Sorry for the long winded post. I apologize if there's already a thread on this, I just didn't see it when searching.
