Any brand of float level control valves will not stop fuel from passing if some sort of debris is allowed to stick between the mating surfaces. The idea is to filter the fuel so this can't happen. No news here, right?! I know the Grose Jet is thought poorly of by some on these forums, but I can attest to having only one incidence of failure in the 33 years I've used the Grose. One piece of rubber about the size of a piece of rice got thru. Likely my fault since I had peviousy changed a fuel line, after the filter.
