Inline Needle Valves

[Aries]

Has anyone used remote needle valves from the RC Car Engine realm?
I have one that is unused and was curious to see if anyone else has thought about using these as an alternative? They are to regulate Fuel/Air mixture. I think I will give it a try since I now need an inline needle valve to regulate CO2 from my gang valve.

Look Here

Obviously I would not use a used one because nitromethanol can kill living organisms.

Just Curious

It will probably work as long as it can be used for air as well as fuel.
Just be extra vigilant if there will be fish in the tank you will be metering gas into.
I make it a habit to check pH daily at lights on for a week to be sure there is no drift in bubble rate.
Let us know how it works out.

I decided to soak the valve in water to see if a film develops. Sure enough it did. Even though it was new, there was some type of oil in the valve (from manufacturing..??). Did not go from there.
