Title: Looking for a tank petcock/Will a 2006 petcock work on an 01 tank?
Post by: jonathanhly on January 17, 2013, 04:38:20 PM
My tank petcock both: has no filter(disintegrated), and doesnt even shut off the fuel supply completely.

This is after dismantling, soaking and cleaning. The thing just does not close completely for some reason.

Anyways, I am looking to buy a one. If you have one in descent condition (better than mine) than let me know!

If nobody has one, I found one on ebay for 15 bucks + shipping, however it is for an 06. Did the fuel petcock change? I would hate to buy it and find that the bolts are smaller, or some other insignificant "improvement".

Thanks!
