Don't have a vacuum pump at the moment. If no gas comes out of either of the lines connected to the carb the petcock is bad?

@@brookebrawley2142 Any auto parts store will have a loan program and loan you that vacuum pump. Your motor acts like a vacuum pump when you hit the start button and your motor starts, when you shut your bike off there is no more vacuum because the motor is not running. And that's why the pump acts like the motor creating the vacuum to open the Petcock..and that's what opens the diaphragm on your Petcock. By using a vacuum pump you're substituting your motors vacuum for the pump vacuum to operate the petcock to flow fuel. I hope you understand that. if you have any questions just ask.

Happy to help. That's personal choice. A lot of people like to keep things OEM. It's nice when it automatically shuts off your gas. As for the tank, if it's that bad. I recommend you take the tank and do as you suggest. Thank you for watching and all your insight.. Ride safe and have a great day.

@@TwoWheelRocco thank you, much appreciated, will let you know!

Started acting like it couldn't breath. When I forced the throttle, it would get up and go but eventually would just shut off. Had to wait about 5 or 10 minutes then it would start again

@@zacharyalexander2814 Happy to Help, sounds like you have a faulty Petcock. the vacuum is collapsing and stopping gas flow check vacuum lines and test the petcock. I will send you a video. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bayfbLRqmLWuiH0.html. This is a Harley Davidson Petcock test. This is the same as Kawasaki, Honda,and Suzuki. they're all vacuum operated when the vacuum hose get old they can collapse, that's the first thing to check. the hose that goes from the Petcock. to the Carburator. Test Diaphragm's in your Petcock. test it and let us know. Any questions just ask. Let us know how this works out. Thank you for watching and your sub Biker Zach... Ride safe and have a great day.

@@TwoWheelRocco replacement is installed and running better. Thanks bro!

@@zacharyalexander2814 Happy to read all is well. Thank you for watching. Ride safe and have a great day.

If it a big Harley your Crossover tube, front of the tanks on the bottom, use needle nose pliers with rubber tube over the jaws to pinch off one side then pull hose off of the other, be ready with another piece of hose to put on the side you pulled off, make sure its long enough to drain into a gas can. Or your auto parts store, siphon is under $10, a small amount will be left at the bottom but insignificant. Hope this Helps. Thank you for your Sub DDias. Any questions just ask. Ride Safe and have a great day.

@@TwoWheelRocco right, on a large tank that works, but what about the 3.3gal sportster tank?

As long that it is a carb bike with an Vacuum petcock. set it on reserve and you are good. As per video.

Happy to help. Switch it over to reserve that would be 12 o'clock on the petcock and see what happens. let us know how it works out. Thank you for watching and your sub Taino. Ride safe and have a great day.

@@TwoWheelRocco yes I also tried that, even checked the filter. I did find a blockage there and cleaned it out. Did a pressure test and the petcock works, but fuel still is not reaching the carburetor. That’s my next step… checking the line making sure it’s not backed up and clean out the carburetor itself. Saved your video on it so I can follow it since it’s the same bike, an 03 Sportster.

@@tainolifeon2s111 let us know how it works out. Following through clean the carburetor check the fuel lines should be all right. Ride safe and have a great day.

@@TwoWheelRocco so I found two bad vacuum lines which I replaced and still nothing. Carburetor is good, cleaned it out as per your video. I’m thinking it’s the vacuum intake line VOES. is there a way to test it? Haven’t been able to find anything helpful for this.

@@tainolifeon2s111 I'm just asking, what are you trying to do? Does this bike start? You stated your carburetors is good. Send a cell # and I will call you..

Happy to Help This will work on most motorcycles with a vacuum Petcock. Will not work on fuel injected bikes. what bike do you have in mind?, Thank you for your Sub Jej0hnson. Let us know how this works out. Ride Safe and have a great day

@@TwoWheelRocco I went to Harbor Freight and got one for $25. I turned the petcock and all the gas came out for free :D still not starting I’m thinking the petcock isn’t good. I’ll report back Rocco

That's your peacock with the vacuum gauge. There's good chances it's no good. Let us know.

@@TwoWheelRocco I’ll report back! Thanks Rocco!

Happy to help. I would clean the Carburator. I will send you a video on how to clean a VTX carburetor. Thank you for watching and all your support Marissa. Let us know how it works out. Any questions just ask. You did no damage clean Carburator new spark plugs try to start it with a full charged battery and you should be all right.

@@TwoWheelRocco nope it’s a fuel injected kawi z400, but your advice still applies, plan is to drain it, fill with a bit of gas, if no start drain that, fill with a bit more over and over until the bad junk is out

@@MarissaTheMuseRemove the breather, spray, some gas and see if it will even kick over. If not, your injector is clogged. Plus check that there is spark at your spark plugs.

@@TwoWheelRocco breather spray? Whats that? It’s not injectors it was running flawlessly it hasn’t been sitting I just used bad gas from a can to top up like 20% from empty and the bike only ran for half a block. I’m assuming injectors can’t get clogged that fast? What scares me though is most videos of ppl with bad gas shows them having low power and breaking up/sputtering and inability to rev etc but mine won’t start at all and shut off 5 houses down from my driveway. Like instantly went from running fine to unable to start after I put that gas in Edit:: sorry for any repeating of already explained details just wanted to be thorough

@@MarissaTheMuse remove the air filter, which is the breather and spray some gas in the intake and try to start it. That's what I was trying to say. Sorry about that. By spraying some gas into the intake, if it starts then you know it's a bad fuel pump on an injected bike. That's usually where I start. I'm believing it's a fuel issue. Not bad gas bad gas would run. I hope that helps. Process of elimination.

Harbor freight very reasonable, five dollars Or autoZone has a tool loan program. Thank you for your Sub Berkner.. Ride safe and have a great day.

Happy to help. This is a carbureted machine. With fuel injection you will have to siphon the gas out. Thank you for watching and all your support Marissa. Any questions just ask. Ride safe and have a great day. Harbor freight sells cheap gas siphons.

It will nut work right. you need a new diaphragm and a new screen rebuild that Petcock.. Bike will never run right Hondas are notorious for bad Petcock. diaphragms replace, will run like new...ebay part. what bike and year?

Remove tank and remove Petcock.and dump the fuel into big oil pan.

2006 VTX1300R. It has a leak too, only when the bike is running.
