Sphincter Valve Replacement?


Wease

Recommended Posts

My buddies 1965 AMC Marlin's sphincter valve has been going crazy lately. Spraying fluid everywhere on hard acceleration. Does anyone have any idea where I can get a replacement one? :confused:

Autozone in Westerville actually has them on sale on the clearance rack and it is exactly for the 65 AMC Marlin. BTW I would check out the knueter valve, because that's what usually makes the sphincter valve go bad.

Man, I should check my Sphincter valve and make sure it's plumbing is clear. However, I might need some help, as it is small, and the hood is a little bigger than most.

P.S. my gf says that it sprays all over the place within a minute of driving, but I don't seem to have the same problem.
