Hi Jim. Thanks. In reading + phone calls today, I realize I've misunderstood things. For anyone other confused souls reading GoWestys library article helped: http://www.gowesty.com/library_article.php?id=312 I had equated the old potentially problematic Auto Stop Fill *valve* with the now the more modern "auto-stop" filling port design. But... In looking at pic here: http://www.gowesty.com/ec_view_details.php?id=2447 I see the main valve, bleeder, fill valve, but what is the blue thing?
Neil.
