      I rebuilt one side of the valve (the side I thought was leaking). I show this in the first video.
      It still leaked so I had to do the other side of the valve. The only new parts I used were two o-rings used for sealing the two ports inside. I show this in the second video.
      Did you do both sides of the valve?
      Did you watch both videos?

      If it works and does not leak then all should be good.

    Hey Tom what does the middle valve connect to? The outter one is vacuum, the big one is fuel line, but my middle one has fuel spitting out.

      Hi Frank, I do not know what the 'middle valve' you are talking about is. Please reference the time index in the video and I will try to answer your question.

      I have not put fuel in it yet. I was going to fill it after I mount it back on the bike. But since you asked this question it made me think I should check it BEFORE I put it back on! Thank you!

      Just in case it is still leaking.

      There is an 0 ring under the big nut that attached it to the tank, also a small I ring that goes under the 'pencil' shaped filter that goes in the tank.
      I would recommend to bug a new peacock which is about the same price as all the replacement parts.
      Thanks for the video

    Thanks for the post Tom. I'm going to rebuild the petcock on my '99 Valk. Can you recommend where to get the parts that you used?

      I use partzilla.com. They had better inventory of the Valkyrie parts than bikebandit.com did.

    But HOW did you removed it from tank? Is it a difficult operation?

    • @TomAsay64
      @TomAsay64  3 роки тому +1

      It is very easy to remove from the tank. You just need to unscrew the big nut at the tank and give a little twist to break it loose. It just slides out after that. I should have recorded that process.
