I have a leaking fuel petcock on my XV920RH, the rubber valve that is actuated by the engine vacuum must have a tiny leak. Gasoline ends up in the vacuum line, which disrupts everything and the bike is not idling.
My question is, can I find this petcock anywhere, and was the same unit used on the more numerous 920 and 1000cc Virago models?

Thanks,

I know this sounds rude..
I had a bad rattle problem with the vacuum system some years ago and decided to just rip it out completely:
* disconnect the vacuum hoses and seal the connectors
* take the little lever off (screw on the backside, I believe)
* turn it 180 deg. and put it back on

=> Now the petcocks have to operated manually and the lever positions are inverted:
* lever forward is "off"
* lever up is "run"
* lever to rear is "reserve"

I hope I didn't forget anything in the assembly sequence, it has been a couple of years and I haven't touched them since then. All I know is that it's working fine!
