1980 kz1000 duel petcock problem was created by terry s
I have a dual port petcock non vacume. The rear fuel tube pulled out of the body. Is there a fix to this? It does fit snug when I push it back in. Has anybody used any sealer and pushed it back in and what did you use?

Use acetone and a cotton Q tip to clean both parts. Then get some Loctite # 262 and apply a drop or two quickly assembling the part. To insure a tight fit, get a block of wood and tap the part with it with a hammer. Let it set up and the fix will be good.

JB weld epoxy works great for this too. Not effected by gas after it hardens.

X2 on the JB Weld. That's what I used on mine.

Seal All or J B weld should work.
