fuel leak

Post by buster711 »

2001 1400 Intruder has a leak at the sub cock and wondering how to test if it is the cock or just the lines, clamps etc connected to it....Sounds like a simple question but figured would ask before taking stuff apart...thanks

You can pull the petcock off and pull it out a little ways. I have never heard of the sub cock actually leaking, it has always been a hose, usually right where the fitting on the sub cock ends.

Does the leak continue when the sub cock is turned off?
I can't seem to win the lottery. I think I have used up all of my good luck riding motorcycles.
