does anyone know the size of the anti siphon valve going from the gas tank to the generator? |

What makes you think the anti siphon valve is bad? Bad impeller(won't start for lack of water)? No coolant in tank? Kohler generator? Borrow a o/b tank and hook it up and see if it starts before replacing parts. |

after 3 days of trouble shooting I found the anti siphon valve was stuck closed. l punched it out it and the gen works great. I searched for a new valve but the barbed end is 3/8 or 1/4 which is definitely bigger than the on on the boat and can't find one that small. more like 3/16. l should have put a different subject title. |
