Petcock Help
I think my petcock is leaking because after leaving the bike over nite in the garage their is a strong smell of gas. So i know a new one cost around 160 so, my question is can i reubuild the damn thing. thx for your help in advance.

I'd take off the tank and check all your lines first. put a piece of toilet paper under the petcock, see if its a wringled up from gas leaking on it. Also check around the seal for the tank lid cover.
|
be sure to check your seal around the filler. also when i disconnect my tank and re hook it up, itll leak for a bit then it stops. nothing excesive just a couple drops from the petcock
|
Mine would leak around the vacuum diagram part. Get a F3 or F4 petcock from ebay and call it a day.
|
didnt know we could use a f3 or a f4 petcock. i think by me just trurning the knob to off has helped me alot
|
Quick question can these petcocks be rebuilt? anyone?

NO that will not work!! The F2 petcock works by vacuum of the #1 port. The F3 does not use vacuum. |
Oh honey, I should hope he would be smart enough to use a $.05 vacuum cap. Jeez.
