While waiting for a paint job on a M1950 to bake, I went hunting and found the following diagrams of the Valve and the F/A tube and how they work. they came out of an Old Technical manual (TM) from back in the 40's. the Manual is: TM 8-615 "Gasoline Stove and Burners" if it wasn't 20mb in size I'd upload the pdf.
well here are the two main pictures and hope they help folks. At least they may help Kyle not have to keep drawing them for folks .

Thanks Robert. That speaks volume's to one who has never figured out the F/A system.

You really did an incredible job with this. I just looked at my post pointing it out and realize I failed to give you credit. I try to do that whenever I post the link to your work. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to do this detailed cut-away. It is very educational.
