    Gasoline In My Cyleners !!!

    I just went into the garage to prepare my bike for spring and as i pulled out the spark plugs noticed they were wet and smelt like fuel so i cranked over the engine and fuel sprayed out of the cylenders???Is this the PET-COCK ??? Has anyone else experienced this before??Any suggestions/help appreciated

    Pesky petcocks

    Hi Mr. Andrew Stano,

    Yes, the petcock would be my first suspect. Don't forget, you've probably got gas in the crankcase oil too. Please change your oil and filter before you start up the motor.


    Thank you for your indulgence,
