When i was leaving work tonight i went to flip my petcock to the reserve posistion ( i didnt have time to stop and fuel up before work), anyways the little arm that turns the petcock on and off snapped right in half:angry: . So i used a pair of plyers to turn it on and off. I was kind of freaking out, cause i didnt know how to fix it, but then i remembered i had the original petcock at home in the garage. When i got home i switched out the little arm and sprayed it down with wd-40 to keep it moving smooth. Im good to go nowB) :lol: :silly:

I am using a GS vacume petcock. It has a huge filter screen on it.

WD is cool but I would prolly use a little grease too. I find that WD does not last. It's more of a cleaner and is temp as a lube. I think the little O=ring would do better with a greasing. Not heavy just a little skim.
