1. Am I crazy?
2. Is there a common swap that used an 8mm line?
3. Is there a replacement petcock with an 8mm outlet?
It’s got the nut type fastener not the two screw holes like some others have.
Just got the thing running with a 1/4”-5/16” adapter but I feel like it’s choking the carb and it wants to stall out. May also be just cause it hasn’t ran in a decade.
Thanks in advance!
Welcome to the site. Typically the oem honda petcock will have a larger spigot. If you can post a photo comparing the 2 petcocks.
Put your butt on the inside fender or end up on the ground!
