A flexible and resilient normally planar flap valve having two portions which together form a generally elongated oval shape. One portion of the flap has a greater radius than the other portion to restrict movement of the flap when installed in a tubular member. When installed the valve forms a generally arcuate shaped flap having a outer surface configured to conform to the cross-sectional shape of the tubular member. The flap has two operative positions; a first position in which the valve allows air to flow unrestricted through the tube; and a second position in which the valve seals off the main air source and directs air between a side opening and the tubular member. The flap is provided with a handle molded directly to one end of the flap, thereby creating a single piece integrated lever and live spring valve.
