SMITHS 12V Electric Fuel Pick Up Switching Valve & Illuminated Switch

Has 2 different Lengths of nylon pick-up tubes that go down into the gas tank
When there is no electrical signal on the valve it picks up fuel through both tubes.
When the fuel level gets down to the first (or the shorter) fuel supply tube, the engine will falter or stall.
The 12V supply switch is turned on, and the engine will get an extra gallon or so of gas in order to drive to the gas station.
When 12 volts is supplied to the Valve, it switches to pick up fuel using only the longer tube at the bottom of the tank.
Comes with the correct illuminated switch- Bulb in center of knob lights up when in "Reserve Mode"
The old VW's, and Porsches used a mechanical valve that was turned with a rod that switched to the "lower straw" for some fuel reserve.
COBRA? DAMLIER? BENTLY? MG?
Removed from a 12Volt English car from the 60's or 70's
