The petcock seems to be the original pregen, it has OFF, ON, and reserve positions, which don't currently seem to work correctly, with the leaking.

Should this petcock kit contain everything needed to restore it, or is it possible a new petcock may be needed?

Is there a recommended carb rebuild kit also, would this work?

I'm hoping to try doing DIY first, maybe with help from a mechanic friend to minimize paying labor costs on top of parts. Any tips/suggestions/critical parts/to do's appreciated!

Does it make sense to do any upgrades now while completing all the above work, to avoid buying things won't need later and doing extra work again later to change them?
