[QUOTE="Speedtwin, post: 179163, member: 5012"] Had a couple of those pet cocks fail in the past, some leak by on new ones is common. They look to be adapted gas taps which incidentally fit and do the job. Who said I was a cheap date? I find welding them onto the tank very effective way to seal the bugger, but make sure the tank is brimming full of petrol before taking the torch and brazing those monkeys into place. PS If anyone finds my nose could they post it back please.. [/QUOTE]
