I expected a lot more from Van's.

Not that far along but did you expect anything less from Van’s. It’s
not a Lycoming so no help from the factory, and wish that I was that
far along. Bob K

Well, yes, anything to verify where the fuel is coming from, but I
already know the fuel valve is bypassing internally. That's the only
place fuel can travel from one side to the other. The question is why.

Sam would you think this might help to verify the source of the
problem if you did it.

Just wanted to let everyone know, I changed the fuel selector, and that fixed the fuel shutoff problem as well as the venting overboard after refueling. Everything was plumbed properly, it was a defective valve, part #V407P-4, that is standard issue in the RV-10 kit supplied by Van's.
I would suggest everyone test there valve periodically for proper operation! Be safe, stay informed, this forum is a valuable resource!

Sam,
Did you take apart the faulty valve?

Idid, and it looked perfectly normal. No cracks in the plastic, smooth operation, nothing one could see.
