  • vacuum fed Special petcocks???

    I am in the process of putting my Special tack back on.
    For several years I have been running a Standard tank and petcocks on my 1980 Special.
    I have really enjoyed using the vacuum fed petcocks, and not having to deal with the octipus.
    I know that this has been "tossed-around" before, but I couldn't find anything definitive in a search.
    Is there a suitable replacement for the petcocks on a Special tank, that offers the vacuum feed?
    I might still have an octipus around here somewhere, but I am looking for options.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    I use the stock Special petcock with one of these in place of the octy, very simple setup...

    You might be able to find a Pingel vacuum petcock with an adapter plate that will fit a Special.
