    Petcock repair kit for XV750J '82

    Hi there

    I have a 1982 Virago 750 with a leaky petcock. Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get rebuild kits for it.
    Nice day, if it doesn't rain...

    I would try an ebay seller called georgefix. He seems to have a bunch of rebuild kits.

        Sorry, K&L? Not familiar with that one.

          Partnering with you to keep your shop moving forward.

          They only sell to dealers but the prices are good. Most all dealers are hooked up with them.

            I tried tightning the screws, as per the Virago site, but it still leaked, so I took the petcock apart, looked at it but couldn't see anything wrong.

            So, I put it back together, and now it doesn't leak, go figure. I guess it just wanted some attention.

              Spoke too soon. Lasted the day, then started puking out gas worse than before.

              I've ordered a kit from George on Ebay.

                Got the repair kit, installed it and the petcock was saved, the day before the Rally.
