    billyghoate – Great, Thank you! I will bookmark that resource.

    BiggKidd – Thank you so much for the kind offer. It is a Robin RGX 305D and the serial number (hard to read) I think is 101066.

    Thank you, You guys are awesome!

    Hi Everybody,

    (Repost: sorry, originally made this post as update to feed instead of reply to this discussion – newbie to social platforms – my wife is better at all this than me.)

    First, Thank you Tag and Bee for creating this and all the work you put into it!! We’re so glad to have found this site from watching Self Reliance Festival replays on Nicole Sauce’s LFTN channel.

    My wife and I are currently doing the “covert” suburban homesteading thing in Beaverton, OR (20 min. West of Portland) but actively looking to relocate. We’ve spent the last five or six years intentionally learning skills for our future country homestead since we both grew up “city” .

    Strong believers in Personal Responsibility, Self-Reliance, and Freedom. Private by nature, neither of us have been active (or comfortable) on social media in the past, but we hope to meet like minded people here and locally in person.

    Have a great day All!

    Kevin

    Thank you gunnsy! Here is another pic showing the gasket (or maybe I should have called it a seal?) that failed. Do you think I might have any luck making a replacement for this with fuel line or…?

    Thanks billyghoate. In this case though, the gasket is tubular not flat (or did I misunderstand you?) I should have posted a better picture of it, but you can see the gasket on the valve handle I’m holding in the upper right picture. Not super optimistic about finding the right size fuel line (both inner and outer diameter)…but thought maybe as a “hail mary”? 🤷‍♂️ Any advice on selecting generic fuel valve and sizing correct fittings? Thanks again. 🙏
