There's wide-range of quality in aftermarket petcocks. But new may certainly be better than old, leaky factory ones for sure. Not sure what components are used, would be best to go through everything and replace with Viton & fluoroelastomer seals to deal with modern ethanol petrol. https://www.litetek.co/
