Flow areas within require aggressive tactics, vacuum diaphragm area demands care and some finesse.

And if its this bad, chances are the carbs are not far behind.

PS I routinely stock petcock rebuild kits and every carb consumable (salvage spare parts too)
Sweet! I'll tear it down when the snow melts and post some pics, see what's going on. If it ends up being a rebuild, I'll shoot ya a PM
