yes ernie, the valve is on the floor behind the built in dresser. I
had to dismantle the dresser cabinet and jack it up enough to get my
upper torso in to get the top off the valve. I can barely see it. Any
way it was coated with white mineral stuff which I cleaned off. since
its so hard to get to I thougt it best to put in new parts. By the way
I fixed my gen set(wouldnt fire). Changed fuel filter and tightned alt
belt.
