Looks like I've got a six port valve. Anybody know how the fuel lines are ran for an 87 as to diffrerentiate between the two tanks at the four port connection at the back of the valve. I want to see if I've got my lines hooked up properly at my fuel pump. If not I can just switch em at the valve. I'm going to disconnect the lines at the back of the valve and see which ones pushing fuel when the left tank pump is energized. If it's coming out the correct side I'll know my valve is bad.

Finally after two years of moving around and not having my tools available I got the switching valve swapped out yesterday. The old one was bad. When I unplugged the harness from it fuel ran out of it, I'm lucky I never had a fire and thank god the plug in never leaked. I put fresh fuel in the tank along with some octane booster and fired it up on that tank, it's still running rough and probably will until I run all the stale 10 month old gas out of it. gonna drive it around today to try to help it out. I'll put a new fuel filter in next weekend.
