I tried starting my new project for the first time today and felt like I wasn’t getting gas. I’m about to go recheck mine right now 😂👋🏾👋🏾

Had to look up KZbin to find this out myself. Petcock = petrol stopcock. Thanks for clear instructions.

Easy to find out. According to your logic, you gould never turn it to OFF. So it has to be the other way around.

Thank you vary much for your video. I didn't notice the arrow till you pointed it out. I was confused about which end of the tab was directional. I put on my glasses and there it was. You Rock. Yamaha TTR 90.

I just got my klx250s today, it's my first bike and I thought the res was the other way as well, thanks. You got great videos by the way.

Thank you for watching. I rode around for a couple weeks like I said until I ran out. You will like that KLX they are a very forgiving bike. Especially since it's your first. Be careful out there.

Same thing happened to me. At one point I got so confused that I set it to the off position which was opposite of RES and the bike stalled :)

If you feel strongly about it, you can easily reverse this if your bike has two fuel hoses running from the tap as mine has. Just swap the hoses at the fuel tap. Easy. Otherwise a dot of paint on the longer ‘FROM HERE’ end of the fuel selector lever will serve as a reminder.

I mistakenly left mine in the flow position on my Troy bilt 19HP tractor and ended up with a crankcase full of gas!! Changed it out and hopefully that will stop that.

I have a Honda Valkyrie with the petcock reserve system and I honestly have no clue what the point is. Just let me have access to my full tank of gas without switching a nob around.
@Jaffsadventures4 жыл бұрын
Yup think i need check mine. As i turned mine to reserve and bike was empty. I guess i had it on reserve already thinking it was on. !

My dirtbike stalls when the tail is on the on position but runs fine when on reserve please explain
@hoffmanshaven6 жыл бұрын
Actually when the "tail" of the switch is at on then your actually running on reserve. If you're starving for fuel in that position then there is more than likely some trash in the bottom of the tank that has plugged up the little straw there. If it was me I would drain the tank and clean everything out. Also check the gaskets on the petcock. They deteriorate over time especially with this ethanol gas.

PETroleum stopCOCK. PETCOCK. Ah language. Sometimes it isn't mysterious at all. Americans might have named it GasCock but most of the English speaking world calls it petrol.

It’s not a “tap”, it’s a peacock. You wanting it to be called something else doesn’t change the fact that it’s proper name is “petcock”.
