Petcock ?

[67GTO]

Years ago I had a dental office as a customer. There were two dentist's
Dr. Bearjar and Dr. Glasscock :)

I can imagine the conversation " hey you have a funny name, and I have a funny name let's open an office together" :)

There is on thing I do  when rebuilding any old petcock  ( on the origonal forum  the censor program kept turning "petcock" into "pet thingy "  it had a dirty mind! :D   
I bend the ripples in the wave washer, Item N in the picture,  to add aditional tension and prevent leaks . They seem to loose tension  as a result of time.

 :) Good call Rick G...I forgot to mention that washer... :-[ I've mod'd the thread to take in this washer and the "four ring donut thingy"  ;D :D :D :D :D... ;)

Theres something I forgot to mention . If your stuck and can't get a rebuild kit, or are waiting for one to arrive  and wan't to ride,  reverse the "4 hole donut" . The front side gets all the wear and the back is pristene  many times. The shop  I worked for in OR  didn't even know rebuild kits were available,  so we used what was there . It worked about 98% of the time.
