first time watching your videos, and I can't thank you enough for posting this. I have a vespa, and the motor oil is flooded with gas. It's probably that darn petcock. Thanks !

Great video
Nice! Plain n simple 👍
Haha perfect. Exactly what I was looking for. Didn't know it was called that lol. Thanks mate. Aus
Man, this was an impressive video.
Imagine being in the middle of nowhere and your motorcycle ran out of gas, you then breathed a sigh of relief as you remember motorcycles have a reserve switch,
you reach over to dial it to reserve only to realize it was already on reserve.
A lot of thanks to this video more power💪👍👍

Great video! Keep in mind that when you switch to reserve, you have the potential to suck up all of the debris in the bottom of the tank.
I would replace your petcock filter!
Thank you, I've been wondering what reserve meant for a really long time! Thanks so much!
reserve meant you going to run out of gas it a warning sign
Haha this happened to me. I ran out of gas and remembered to put the petcock to reserve and then I kept it going. Luckily wasn't much traffic at the time.
Verygood explanation
You are really good teacher! I felt bad that the video ended.
Thank you 🙏

Good work guys 🇮🇳
When dealing with fuel it's called an engine . When dealing with electricity it's called a motor . You should have went into vacume petcock as well as most scooters and mopeds today most likely use them . If you have a bike with a vacume petcock. If you know the whole fuel system is sound including your petcock , the line may be air bound . To fix the issue with your bike not starting simply take off the vacume line from the carb , put it in your mouth and gently suck . You will see the fuel filter fill with fuel . Once it has , crimp the line near the end , take it out of your mouth and hook it to the carb while the line is still crimped , then release . You should be fine as long as you keep the line crimped not letting any air at all back into the line . you now have the vacume you need to start your bike . Hope this helps someone out there .Happy riding .👍
Really nyc video
very importrnt! thank you!
Bravo!
Okay thank you very much for your quick reply, it looks like I can leave the tap in on position when I finished my ride then 🤔 is that correct? Thanks again John 😊
hahahaha these sound effects are hilarious
thank you
My Vespa ET4 has a vacuum fuel valve. If I am correct it uses a vacuum pressure to drive the fuel instead of turning the valve on the petcock. Petcock and fuel valve are the same thing? Well, the fuel has been leaking after starting the bike. I looked carefully and see its leaking from the hose that sits to the side of the fuel valve versus the one towards the bottom. I suspect it's the carburetor line? It has a small crack near the clamp. The clamp was easy to loosen but the tube isn't easily removed. I am searching for advice before yanking off the tube. I could snip off a piece with the crack and it will likely fit, stop the leak long enough to drive it to the mechanics for further inspection. Thanks for your video.
Gotta love your petcock!
This was very good video thank you
Thanks, we have many more, all for the Moped ;-)
thank you i just bought a 2005 tomos XL! now i wont flood it
great video presentation
Thank you, we are planning to make more of these, but not sure what topic... what Moped education video would you like to see?
Thank you..
exselent video
Great video!!! Can't wait to get my own moped 🏍
Tq very much
Had i known this before, it would've saved me a 40 min walk.
And all you had to do was flip a switch
Hahahahaha
thanks
Mine has a reserve tank, a full tank and a gas station symbol. Which position should I put it when I'm not using my bike?
Hi ,my 50cc taotao runs when I cover the carburetor air in. On carb.what is causing the fuel to go into the air filter?
Awesome
Thanks i understand very well unlike all india guys haha and one more thing. This is very entertaining. 😂
Is every petcock on/off switch universal? Because I have an after marker and tossed the instructions
Thanks sir love from india
good video
Thank you!
What happens to your motor if you put in reserve even you have much gasoline?, Thank you.
Question: is the straw thingy necessary?
Hell yeah. Maspeth!
Home sweet home
Two Thumbs up.
that frustration
What I send the gasoline directly to the carburetor
Hahahahaha... Good video. Thanks
What do you do if it floods
What if your accidentally leave it on for a whole day ! I accidentally did it , I forgot to turn it off 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Great video, so would replacing a Vacuum petcock with a manual one be better?
It’s common in many scooters
Which bike is it?
This was a great tutorial thank you :)
Could you help me please? My tap on my Yamaha Diversion 600 has - On, Reserve, and Prime. I can't see a off position ? Thanks John :)
Sounds like you have a vacuum line petcock. As the engine turns over, a little vacuum line helps pump out gas into the carburetor. This should be the case in the ON or RESERVE position. In these positions The gas will only flow if the engine is turning over... so they are as good as OFF if the engine is not. The exception here is PRIME, which will let gas flow without any help from the vacuum pump (helping to prime the carb, or fill it up with gas). Hope this helps!
What happens to my petcock its does not stop all the way to reserve whats wrong
Great!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
What if motorcycle engine is off but petcock is on what will happen
ENLIGHTENMENT!!!
I haven't seen a Tomos in 25 years
If you dont turn it off, you wont flood your engine, because the carb automatically shuts off the flow. At least on carburetor bikes anyway
