摘要: A fuel valve device and a method of controlling fuel flow between a fuel tank and an engine are disclosed. A fuel valve comprises an inlet conduit including an inlet end connectable to a fuel tank and a central axis, an outlet conduit including an outlet end opposite the inlet end connectable to an engine. The outlet conduit has a central axis offset from the inlet conduit central axis. A movable valve ball is configured to block fuel flow from the inlet end to the outlet end at a predetermined pressure and to permit the fuel flow from the inlet end to the outlet end when pressure in the fuel valve device exceeds the predetermined pressure, movable along a travel axis defining an angle with the inlet conduit central axis that is greater than 5 degrees and less than 90 degrees.
