Just replaced my longtime leaking stock petcock. Guess leaking from old age...

Drag Spec simple on off ... plugged the vacuum line ... 15 min work and good to go!!

Like a pro
I always feel amazed and relieved when I work with gasoline don’t accidentally set something on fire
LOL

Haha!! Had a fire already, though not this time!! Busted Throttle cable shorted the main feed in the front... Lucky I was with The bike when it happened!!!

Once your vacuum Line is gone just don't forget to shut it off .. Put a Pingle Petcock on my 2001 Sportster, but was almost religious about making sure I shut it off .. Became a Habit that I shutoff fuel before ignition ..

My buddy helped me work on Bruiser. He cut the gas on before the hose was connected. Then after we determined it needed a battery, I didn't discover he had left the gas on until the new battery had come in. I had to change the oil and refill the tank. All because he had only ever owned one bike, and it was fuel injected.
