FAQs
Does this petcock include the mounting gasket?
It is always recommended to check the specific packaging contents, but standard practice is to ensure a clean, high-quality gasket is used during every installation.
Can this be used on a non-Acerbis fuel tank?
This petcock is specifically designed for Acerbis tanks; it may not fit the thread pitch or sealing surface of other manufacturers.
How do I know if I need the right-side version?
Check your current tank configuration; if the petcock is mounted on the right side when you are sitting on the bike, this is the correct part.
Is this suitable for premix fuel?
Yes, this petcock is built to be compatible with standard gasoline and oil-gas mixtures used in off-road motorcycles.
How often should I replace the petcock?
Replace it if you notice fuel weeping from the handle, difficulty in turning the valve, or if the unit has been physically damaged.
Troubleshooting
Fuel leaking at the tank bung connection
Ensure the sealing O-ring or gasket is present and not pinched; tighten the nut to the recommended torque specification.
Fuel not flowing despite the petcock being in the open position
Check the fuel line for kinks and ensure there is no blockage or debris inside the petcock screen filter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure the fuel tank is completely drained to prevent spillage. Inspect the internal threads of the tank bung for debris before threading the petcock in. It is highly recommended to use a fuel-resistant thread sealant or a new O-ring if required by your specific tank model to ensure a drip-free installation. Once installed, attach the fuel line and use a high-quality hose clamp to secure the connection. For maintenance, periodically check the unit for signs of fuel weeping around the selector knob or the mounting nut, and ensure the fuel line remains supple and free of cracks.
