Great adVENTURE Posted April 27, 2016 #1 Posted April 27, 2016 Has this ever happened to anyone or is this normal for the brass nipple insert to just freely pull of the petcock? Any ideas on what to do now? Long story short is I took my seats off to get them butlerized and took that opportunity to pull the tank and change the plugs and what not.
Freebird Posted April 27, 2016 #2 Posted April 27, 2016 Not unusual at all. Just tap it back in and you are good to go. I had one come out. Just tapped it back in and it never came out again.
bongobobny Posted April 27, 2016 #3 Posted April 27, 2016 Yup!! What Don said! There was a thread just recently about this!
Great adVENTURE Posted April 28, 2016 Author #4 Posted April 28, 2016 FEW! was sweeting bullets there for a minute thinking how my seat mod just cost me an additional $71 for a petcock. Do you think its advisable to maybe put a small amount of jb weld on the brass then tap her home?
bongobobny Posted April 28, 2016 #5 Posted April 28, 2016 Ummmm, myself I would be concerned about foreign matter plugging up the petcock...
Freebird Posted April 28, 2016 #6 Posted April 28, 2016 I agree with Bob....you would need to be very careful. I didn't put anything on mine and never had another problem.
Great adVENTURE Posted April 28, 2016 Author #7 Posted April 28, 2016 Ok gonna press it back in "gently" without adhesives. Thanks for the input
