The fuel tap isn’t completely shutting off the fuel when the bike is of and the petcock is in the on position. It was more than a drip but not a steady stream. So brilliantly I decided to rebuild the unit. Purchased a K and L brand kit off eBay, cleaned all the components then replaced all the gaskets.

Doing this actually made it worse! Anyone know if that brand is any good or should I have only used genuine parts?
