Going over my gear, I find I needed to replace my dump valve line. It wears against the hole of the cap, since the cord is pulling directly sideways.
As I activated the pull, I noticed and felt the binding, then sudden full open. The cord's fault, not the dump valve?
So, messing around, I came up with this. I understand that I will have to cut the itty bitty tie wrap every time I want to unscrew the dump valve, but I have lots of them.
Can anyone see any reason to NOT dive it this way? The cord pulls way smoother than it did before,
and I can open it "just a squeak", much more fine control.
