skunkrider2 Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) I ordered a petcock rebuild kit for my 94 750 WR. All straightforward to fit apart from 1 piece which I can't work out how it comes out of petcock. When whole thing is disassembled, your left with main body which has fuel filter gauze attached, there is a round rubber Gromit attached to what looks like a bearing (its not a bearing) bout the size of a 1p piece, rubber on one side. I can't work out how it comes out of body, as you cannot push from rear? I know it must come out as there is a replacement in the rebuild kit. Just wondering if anybody done one of these before?

bluedog59 Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 If it's the diaphragm for the fuel cut off, maybe you could blow it out with an airline on the vacuum pipe to the carbs. Quote
Madb Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 You will need to undo the screws that hold the shaft in . Then push it though. If i remember correctly. But i may have remembered.Wrongly. It has been known.(to often receintly) Quote

It looks like a push fit from front but you cannot do opposite to remove. Ill take some pictures tomorrow to try and explain a bit better. Quote
