The new valve and full flow 90 degree elbow came today. Only problem is that I did not realize when I placed the order that the 90 has a 1" hose barb on it. My current hose to the wash down pump is 3/4" ID. I just checked the old fitting and it is a reducing fitting from 1" pipe to 3/4" hose.
I checked the online catalog and Groco does not make a 90 for a 3/4" valve to 3/4" ID hose so I am stuck with the 1" hose barb. I will probably end up running 1" hose to the strainer and then off the strainer 3/4" to the pump. If not I will see if the pump will accommodate 1" hose. There is always something to throw your plans off kilter.
