It is 5/8" ID hose

does that make it a 3/4 OD...? or even 1"...?

Mogman · Wednesday at 3:16 PM

I would think pretty close to 7/8"

I’m pretty sure there are clamps there already. Holding in the valve that went bad.

ok so just to let other people know: After installing the valve depicted in Post #58 in line, WHAT A DIFFERENCE !

I received my valve in the mail. Is it normal for the thing to go past its “full open” and then restrict flow again?
One pic is the max open the valve will actually be. Other pick (less daylight) is when the lever is all the way to open

I noticed something very similar to that on mine too.

I think it is normal since the push pull cable will only activate the valve a 1/4 turn. Some have a "stop" detent built into the valve, but most do not.
