Re: Fuel Tap

I've just dismantled my petrol tap, fitted with Viton 'O' rings and find that there are pieces missing as previously described.
New corks on order from The Green Spark Plug Company.

Re: Fuel Tap

There were or are some replacement taps available which were riveted together William. If you drain the tank and let the corks dry out they shrivel up.

Re: Fuel Tap

Fuel tap corks arrived today from The Green Spark Plug Co. I was worried that they might be too big but they fitted perfectly, and easily with no leaks. I was puzzled why there were three in a set but two are for use and one is spare.

I had a look at the LINKS for Seven Workshop and Green Spark Plug Company and couldn't find any cork seals. Can someone narrow it down a bit please?

Try A7 Components!

Re: Fuel Tap

Hello David, I did have a quick look at the catalogue but missed the cork seals. I've just had another look and there they are! Sorry, but I'll know where to look next time!
