That is the name. Damnable difficult things to get for some reason. Now I need to know what size the OEM is. Cannot have my natty new petcock going without new seals.

Yes they are known as dowty seals, but there is another name for them and I was going to look them up as well, but where the hell did the Boulevard Suzuki parts fiche go?
Anyway, they are located on the temperature sending unit on the '79 GS1000 temperature sending unit housing, they don't show them on the petcock. The originals were fiber, the newer ones are rubberized coated washers. I have used Teflon in a pinch.sigpic
