So I just took apart my petcocks and they are in much worse condition than I thought they would be. I just bought the bike. I've never even seen pictures online of ones this bad.
My question for you much more experienced guys is should I even bother cleaning and rebuilding them? They seem quite rusted on the main opening on top and inside the chambers. And there was a nasty black compound built up inside. I'm all for cleaning them but I honestly don't know if they are to damaged or not. Kind of a newb here.
