I’m moving on to other areas of the bike as I wait for a few engine parts. I pulled the petcock today and am now a little stumped.
1) The lever is very difficult to switch back and forth and feels like it needs to be cleaned. How do I get the pieces apart, it appears to be riveted?
2) My petcock kits does not match the parts that are in the petcock. Will they work? What is the spring for? Any suggestions, graphics on how to assemble with the kit?
3) Should the plastic tubes have some out of the tank with the petcock? The tanks will need cleaning.
Oh, and just a little thanks to the PO who thought a self tapping bolt was a better idea than replacing with the right screw. Probably had something to do with why it leaked and the rubber parts don't look that bad. Will likely repair with a helicoil, just wanted to complain.
Thanks
