According to Cessna, the fuel valve, PN 0511199-8 has been superceded to PN 0511199-20 and sells for $ 37.57

(I think I'd replace it with a common Curtis or Saf-Air valve.)

The fuel tank gasket PN 0523532 is priced at $ 21.20 (EA)

I think I'd make my own out of rubberized cork sheet, available from any NAPA autoparts store in bulk. You can buy a two foot square sheet for about $4.
Same for the other tank gasket PN 0522621, which is unavailable from Cessna.

I have always used the Saf-Air MODEL CAV-170. I worry that the Curtis valves will interfere with the door, but I've never tried one. I think the Curtis may have a better shut-off. Opinion? George?

Check you PM. I sent a link to gasket templates to make your own.

Thanks, guys. As usual, you guys are a wealth of knowledge.

Just one other question: I am on my way to the auto parts store, is there a certain thickness for the rubberized cork material?

And, Bruce, thanks for the templates.

The gaskets I duplicated were 1/16th inch thick. I used 3/32 inch thick with out any problem.

I use the Saf-Air CAV-170 also FOR THE WING SUMP. He was asking about the valve for the gascolator.
