So, do you ya'll think that the pressure feeding back through the return line could have damaged the switch valve. Not sure, but I imagine the return line would have to run through the switch valve in order to know which tank to return the fuel to.

Don't want to put on a new switch valve until I figure out what caused it to quit, unless it was just age. Just seems like an awful big coincidense though that it would just happen to quit a week after hooking up the new regulator and rehooking up the return line.

I have the Mallory pressure regulator set at about 5.5 PSI as the Edelbrock manual I received with the carb said to set it at.

ANY SUGGESTIONS, IDEAS,DYNAMITE"LOL"?
