5 of 5 I use these constantly and they never leak Tuesday, June 6, 2023
taco eater : Mike Boyd from Los Angeles, CA United States  
Hate to say it but I feel like most of these low star reviews are user install error. You can't be ham-fisted when installing these. Don't over-torque, make sure the brass fuel line is in the proper direction, don't let it spin inside the frame/tank. Literally works every time.

1 of 5 Complete waste of money Saturday, November 11, 2017
taco eater : Anonymous Person  
Leaked and leaked and leaked. Ruined the new paint on my maxi and then snapped in half. Complete waste of time and money. Would give it zero stars if I could.

taco eater : kristopher maedke-russell from savannah, GA United States  
flows good but "off" position drips.  this product is especially ill-suited for use with a leaky bing.  now theres no paint left on the floor where the maxi parks.

4 of 5 It is good but I am confused Wednesday, April 11, 2012
taco eater : Erik Kovac from Passaic, NJ United States  
The petcock does not say which position is the on/off/reserve that is really frustrating. Can anyone help?

I really like having a working petcock, had this one for several months and I think it's great.

3 of 5 Starting to fail Sunday, May 8, 2011
taco eater : bababooey from pa  
This was already installed on my bike when I bought it.  It worked great, but now it doesn't "snap" in at the desired selection for fuel flow.  It's all creamy smooth moving which is probably not a good thing.

1 of 5 OMG -- this is crap! Tuesday, September 7, 2010
taco eater : Evan Schneider from Piedmont, CA United States  
I bought 2 of these to put on 2 newports that I have.  I thought they'd be good, because they look stock-ish, are made in Italy, and are on the expensive side for a petcock.  I was wrong -- both stopped working within 6 months.  The problem has to do with the rubber washer deep within the petcock, the one that seals "off" from "main" and "main" from "reserve."  If you don't use it for any extended period of time that washer gets sticky and won't switch well between the three settings.  The result is either a non-functioning main or reserve, or a leak.  It's hard to fix because the rubber thing gets damaged easily under its huge spring.
