Hi All,
Just thought I'd share a quick fix I performed on my FEL in case anyone else experienced the same problem I had.
Anytime it got below freezing my FEL lever would not go to the down position (lever up). The problem was water in the aluminum cup on the bottom of the valve. (dealer told me) I removed the cup (2 SHCS) and cleaned it out. I put some oil on the springs and reassembled it. Hopefully that will keep it going for the winter. Any suggestions are appreciated.
I was surprised the screws were not metric. I guess the valve was made in the USA?
