Should the wheel-well fuel shutoff valve completely stop fuel flow when closed or only severely restrict it. I have a small amount coming through the valve when it is in the closed position. Aircraft is a 560A. The same type of valve is used for hydraulic and oil shutoff. I am opening the fuel drain valve with the electric pump on and the valve closed to check the close position. Is this a valid test? Thanks to anyone who checks their airplane and shares the results with me.
