Fuel cock leaking

Im still trying to figure out where my petcock is leaking i think were the fuel line hooks up to the petcock that steel part keeps popping out of the fuelcock is this normal ? the part that the hose clamps to and it can pivot kinda hard to explain i would take a picture but it wont let me upload on this webpage for some reason

it says

when i try and upload pics

I had the same problem on a 78 KZ 650 many years ago, I pulled the nipple out & cleaned it well, same with the surface on the petcock around where the nipple goes, making sure there was no fuel or oily stuff on either part (nipple & petcock),I then inserted the nipple into the petcock as far as I could & at the proper angle for the fuel line, I then mixed a small amount of J B Weld & put it around the area where the nipple is inserted into the petcock, let it dry a day or two, & it never leaked or came out again
maybe someone will chime in with a better fix, but this method fixed my problem

The brass fuel nipple on my bike came out -- I re-installed it by applying Permatex liquid metal to the outside of the nipple, then pushed it back in place. That was several years ago --- no leaks. I also used the stuff to repair a leaky low fuel switch.

A good alternate product would be Seal-All --- I think the Home Deport carries it.

Thanks for the replys mines not brass tho but ill definitly try jb weld after i use all this gas in the tank up im so sick of fuel leaking in my garage right now i have zapstraps holding it in super tight seems to be working

Your pics may be too large and causing that error message. You can use Paint to resize them smaller. Ed

JB Weld will probably do the job, but I think it's a 2-part epoxy, so you have to do some mixing --- no mixing with the liquid metal or Seal-All. click! .
