Retrofit oil valve with biodiesel compatibility

in Oil Heating
Is there a preferred oil valve for use with the Suntec A2VA-7116B pump? I was trying to find one that was listed as biodiesel blend compatible, to future proof as RI is supposedly going to a B15 blend by 2025. I've had a hard time finding anything bio rated on the market. My pump doesn't have a valve right now but I upgraded to a Genisys control which supports the pre-purge delay.

Thanks.

    What type of valve are you looking for/ A firomatic valve or a solenoid valve

    Sorry, was referring to a solenoid valve.

    Most standard fuel pumps are fine up to B20.
    More important is that the strainer gasket and fuel filter gaskets are rated for bio.
