Consumer Description

THE FUEL VALVE (PETCOCK) ON MY 2004 HONDA SHADOW AERO MOTORCYCLE STARTED LEAKING FUEL AND EVENTUALLY FAILED. UPON DIS-ASSEMBLY OF THE VALVE, I DISCOVERED THE RUBBER DIAPHRAGM HAD FAILED, CAUSING THE FUEL TO LEAK OUT THE BOTTOM AND FURTHER PREVENTING FUEL FROM REACHING THE CARBURETOR. I REPLACE THE WHOLE VALVE WITH ONE OFF OF A SALVAGED 2006 MODEL. I STILL HAVE THE OLD VALVE. *TR
