Petcock replaced - Thanks

Being a newbie with limited mechanical skills, I celebrate small victories like today's.  Thanks to the instruction found on this forum I was able to change out the stock petcock for a Raptor in about 20 minutes.  I did so without skinning my knuckles and I didn’t even have to break out my best curse words  Smiley

Thanks again to everyone who contributes great information and advice on the forum. Greatly appreciated.

If you didn't skin your knuckles you didn't do it right, sorry.  Sad

Put the old one back in and try again.  Wink

Congratz!

To be sure to block off the vaccum to the carb. Then go go do 60MPH for 30 minutes.. world of difference!

Very cool... save up those cusswords. You'll need them for future maintenance endeavors.  Wink
