Can someone supply me with the Part No for the Pingel petcock which some of you use to replace the stock Triumph one? I'd like to see if they can provide a vacuum-operated one that is identical in size, mounting holes, etc. That way, I'd set the T100 up like the W650, and wouldn't always be finding the gas left on overnight.
Bob

Oops,sorry Bob. I looked it up and the valve is not vacuum operated. Still looks good though.
gas valve

Thanks, Rodburner .... I know Pingel has some vacuum operated petcocks, since they asked me to send measurements (hole to hole, which side of tank it was on, which direction the fuel line attaches).
I thought since Pingel already supplied a non vacuum version, I'd ask if they had a similar one with a vacuum hook up.

I would go to the Pingel website and get contact info. Then call them and give them the info they need to recommend a petcock. You will need to make sure that everything on the back of the Pingel (vacuum line spigot, fuel line spigot) will clear the throttle cables.

Bob...I checked last night to see if I still had the packaging on mine, but couldn't locate it. I believe the model used is the 6211-CL or 6311-CL Series. They do have a Vacuum model 6311-CRV which appears to be similar.

Shorty - thanks for the info. I'll use your part numbers as a reference point when I contact Pingel. I'll bet your numbers are right on the money!
