Zayed, thanks for posting those pics and part #'s!
A friend tested it by putting 12v current to it.
When this is done you will hear it make a sound. Mine made no noise at all. The used one i bought made the sound which is pretty much closing or opening the valve.

It use to take me 15-20 minutes to put in 10.00 of gas.
Now I put in 20.00 in less than 50 seconds.

This is the place of the "shut-off valve".....

If you look down-side of the ABS/ESP pump, you will see it connected to Electric wire & "2" vent hoses....
