Elcheapo Valet Switch

well ive been wanting a valet for some time now, but the solienoid at $35.00 was too much, not to metion the parker fitttings in the sticky. so i made my own

1/4" ball valve
1/8 npt barb
90' 1/4" barb
1/8-1/4 adapter
1' winshield wiper hose

the way i built it was take the stock AFC line out, then put the 1/8" barb on the block, then attach the hose on it, then attach the 1/4" barb onto the ball valve, then attach the adapter to the other end of it, and attach the stock AFC line to it ending in the AFC. yeah i kow i did this all out of random materials i fould laying around. and the stock line fixes the problem of not being able to find a 1/16 npt barb fitting, it all works great for a cheap method. i will post pics later.
