This petcock valve is commonly found on scooter, ATV, motorcycle, and dirt bike carburetors. The petcock is sometimes called a gas tank switch and it is a small valve that controls the flow of fuel from the tank to the carburetor. Our 3-position petcock (OFF / ON / RESERVE) is especially useful on powersports equipment that lacks a fuel gauge. Many older motorcycles and scooters used a small auxiliary reserve tank instead of a gauge. If you needed to switch to RESERVE you knew it was time to fill up your regular tank.
This petcock is based on a common Yamaha design and it is a very useful scooter, ATV, & dirt bike part that can be used on go-karts, dune buggies, and a wide range of gas-burning machines.
