1979 XS650 Special
I have the tank off my 1979 Special. Right side isn't sealing, fuel just pours right out.
If I'm gonna address one side, I may as well address both.
It seems vacuum petcock are just ... a bad idea.
Can I just replace them with the non-vacuum type from MikesXS?
What happens to the vacuum ports on the carbs? Is there some sort of cap?
Is it a straight swap?
I searched, but i didn't find a "beginner's answer".
