        The kit has all the parts to rebuild both manual tank mounted fuel valves and the vacuum operated fuel shutoff, mounted on the left carburetor (octy).

          • That is for the octy. If you are not using the octy then it is not needed.

                  • Maybe not too bad, the rusty part should lift off, then the rubber bellows next, under that is the inside of the reservoir

                          • Mack offered this answer...

                            On the plunger close to the pointy end you'll see a flange with holes in it. The little washer goes against that and the thinner of the rubber gaskets goes against the washer. Make sure the middle gasket is installed first, it's the thicker of the two and ensure the larger diameter is facing the pointy tip. The little metal nipple goes over the end, then you put the narrow end of the spring on the metal nipple. Coat the M/C bore and rubber gaskets with brake fluid before assembly into the bore to lubricate. Insert then install horseshoe clip then c-clip then rubber boot.
