Triumph - Seal Fuel Tap (En) - 2400086T0301

The repair was easy for me because - I didn't do it. A buddy installed the part. I can say I am very happy with the part. It is nice not to have a leaking petcock valve.

On a new to me barn find '05 Triumph America, I noticed a raw fuel smell after removing, rebuilding, and refitting the carbs. No leaks were found at the carbs or overflow hose. My hand brushed the petcock while poking around, and that was the source of the leak. Enough to smell but not enough to drip. I drained and removed the tank and found that the petcock to tank seal was compromised. I ordered all these parts before removal. probably didn't need the petcock (fuel tap assembly) but replaced it anyway. I was pleased to find that it is made by Mikuni! Back up and riding within 30 minutes. Easy repair once I found the source of the leak.

My fuel tap assembly was leaking at the valve. I had no idea how old it was or the condition of the internals, so I just replaced it rather than trying to rebuild it. After removing the tank and draining the fuel, I flipped the tank and removed the old assembly. I thoroughly cleaned the spacer, reassembled the stack with a new seal and mounted. I chose to replace the washers and bolts as well. This project went very smoothly. After a test run to ops check and leak check, the bike is sitting leak free, with a tank of fuel.

Right OEM part delivered in a reasonable time. Fuel petcock assembly is an easy two bolt replacement on old motorcycles. Don't know why I waited so long to just fix it. Thanks

I've got an old 2001 or so Triumph Adventurer. Cool old bike. But as I was riding it a couple seeks ago I noticed a gas smell so I rode it home and noticed that the pet cock was leaking fuel like crazy. SO I emptied the gas from the tank and took the tank off and took the pet cock off of the tank. Sure enough the rubber seals were 20 years old and the had dried and started to crack. So I ordered the gaskets from Adept Power Sports and replaced the O Ring inside the fuel selector and put it all back together with a little liquid fuel gasket and it all sealed up nice and no more fuel leak. So it worked out well.
