For sale here are three NOS fuel drain valves--all the same.  This is the manually activated valve at the bottom of the firewall, on Globe and TEMCO Swift aircraft, that is checked during "pre-flight" on these aircraft to drain any water from the low point in the system.  These are NOS items that I acquired back in the 1980s when I owned a Swift.  A Koelher part # K-9000S-1A is stamped onto the body of each of these. The yellow tag on each has the number 2915,396,2256 stamped on it.
