    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.

          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.
