I'm trying to replace my IPR valve and the new one I received the start of the threads are 180 degrees opposite of the one I pulled out. What does this mean? Well, when I put the new one in the connector is facing down towards the engine instead of up making it impossible to connect the connector. Manufacturer defect? I guess I'll have to give Tousley a call and see if they can send me another one and send this one back. Has anyone ever had this issue?

you can move the position of the connector on the IPR body. I wish I had a valve in front of me, I can't remember exactly how it's done. Hopefully someone else will chime in

The body of the IPR is independent of the nut that tightens it down. Back the nut off and twist the valve to clock it to the position you want.

You guy's are awesome. It's now re-keyed and installed. I'm used to re-keying connectors on aircraft and I originally started to try to do the same thing to the IPR valve but it seemed too tight and I thought I was going to break the connector. I needed the reassurance from ya'll that it could be done. Thanks again!!!
