Pumps & Petcocks

The petcock is the gatekeeper of your fuel system — a small but critical component that controls flow from tank to carb or injection system. A sticky, deteriorated, or leaking petcock is one of the most common causes of fuel delivery problems, and a quality replacement is one of the most cost-effective fixes in powersports maintenance. We stock petcocks for a wide range of dirt bikes, ATVs, and street motorcycles.

Our selection includes direct OEM-fit replacements as well as universal options for custom installs. Available in reserve, on/off, and vacuum-operated styles to match your original system's design. All petcocks are manufactured from fuel-compatible materials and tested for leak-free operation. Whether your petcock has simply worn out or you're replacing a missing unit on a project bike, we have the right part in stock.

Find the correct petcock for your machine using the year, make, and model selector.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a high flow fuel petcock and a stock fuel valve?

High flow fuel petcocks from brands like Pingel are designed to deliver significantly more gasoline to the carburetor than OEM units, preventing engine starvation during high-performance riding. These CNC-machined valves are essential for modified dirt bikes and street motorcycles where increased fuel demand is necessary to maintain power and prevent lean conditions.

Will a Pingel heavy duty petcock fit my KTM or Honda dirt bike?

Pingel offers model-specific fuel valves designed for KTM, Honda, and other major manufacturers that feature different mounting styles such as the 1-bolt, 2-bolt, or threaded designs. Before purchasing, verify your tank's fuel outlet size and bolt spacing to ensure compatibility with either an IMS high-capacity tank or your original equipment.

When should I use a Mikuni vacuum petcock instead of a manual fuel valve?

A Mikuni vacuum petcock is an ideal replacement for street bikes and ATVs that require an automatic fuel shut-off when the engine is not running to prevent carburetor flooding. While manual valves provide simpler operation for racing, vacuum-operated systems offer an added layer of safety and convenience for daily riders and recreational powersports vehicles.

Are there rebuild kits available for leaking IMS or Acerbis fuel tanks?

Yes, an IMS Petcock Rebuild Kit allows you to replace worn gaskets, O-rings, and internal seals to stop leaks without purchasing an entirely new valve assembly. These kits are compatible with many aftermarket tanks used on off-road bikes and are a cost-effective way to restore your fuel system's integrity and reliability.

How do I choose the correct fuel line size for an aftermarket Pingel petcock?

Most high-performance petcocks require either 1/4 inch or 5/16 inch fuel line hose depending on the specific outlet barb size of the valve. Always measure your carburetor inlet diameter and choose a petcock with a matching barb size to ensure a secure, leak-free connection that provides consistent fuel flow through the entire RPM range.
