CB350f Petcock
« on: August 29, 2012, 03:37:59 AM »
What universal petcock and adapter has anybody used on a 73 CB 350f?  I can't seem to find on I actually think fits on mine.  There are some on ebay that say they fit but appear to not be exact. 

Or if anyone has one for sale let me know!

I needed one for my cb750 and it was impossible to find an exact match.  Luckily the threads on the tank are the same across the board for most all cbs.  Differences will be number of outlets, angle of outlet(s), and style of valve handle.  If you're not looking for an exact match, I would just get one that looks close and has a good return policy.  Again, most all threads on cb fuel tanks are the same.

None - it's a unique fitting...  they appear on e-Bay occasionally

+1.  No threaded bung on the 350F.  There are two phillips screws (and fibre washers) that go into the bottom of it.

Seems like you could pretty easily fabricate something using a piece of flat maybe 1/4" thick x 2" long x 3/4" wide) aluminum, a drill press, a couple of taps, some fuel-resistant gasket material and an exacto, and some small plumbing fittings threaded to whatever size you need.

What it ultimately looks like depends on the petcock you're trying to fit.
