Use the search button at the top of the page to look for 'petcock spooge hole'. Also look for 'petcock repair'. This will bring you up lots of articles about your problem. If you are a bit lucky, and if you are careful with taking it apart, you will probably be able to get your petcocks working without a lot of cash money involved. Like anything, pay close attention to how it comes apart.Ken Talbot -
It's been a few years since I have done mine but I think I ordered a kit from Partsnmore. If I remember right it was fairly cheap and easy to do.Harry

I did the same. The rebuild is very simple assuming your tank isn't full of gas.Originally posted by Rasputin
