Aero NB50 Replacement Petcock

Post by gluedgorilla »

I discarded the original petcock on my aero and now I have been unable to find a fitting replacement. I ordered one off amazon and the nut was too big to fit on the stem of the gas tank. I have been trying to find the right size petcock and ive had no luck and im not wanting to keep shooting in the dark and order more wrong petcocks.

Greetings:

Model year 1985, perchance? The threaded fitting in the fuel tank was smaller on the 1985 than on 1986-later. Only Honda-san knows why? I'd suggest you be sure to order for 1985-earlier. AFAIK the Spree tanks underwent the same size change in the same year, so you may have more options ordering as there were several years for that model. The part and function should be the same.
