Run On Control Valve

This valve controls purging of carbon canister and also prevents engine run on when ignition is turned off. Valve will close when ignition is switched off which will create a slight vacuum in float chamber of carburetor(s) to prevent run on. When oil pressure drops to zero, when engine is stopped, valve will be deactivated.
