Description
Fuel Tap universal On / OFF 6mm. Comes in very handy after having converted to a manifold without vacuum connection. Usually, you will then drill a hole into the vacuum tap. In order to still be able to work on the carb without petrol leaking off, you will need a manual fuel tap.
Diameter: 6mm.
Fuel tap
Depending on the type of vehicle, there are different types of fuel taps:
- Vacuum fuel tap: when the engine is running, a vacuum raises a valve through which gasoline flows. This valve closes as soon as the engine stops running.
- Fuel cock with lever: Turn the lever with normally three positions (On / Off / Reserve).
- Fuel cock with knurled wheel: Loosen the knurled wheel to let the fuel through.
- Quick lock coupler: In this case, both parts must be unclipped to cut off the fuel supply.
Please note that some fuel taps are equipped with a filter. This filter must of course always be clean for the engine to work properly.
In our store you will find fuel cocks of all types, in OEM quality for specific models as well as universal versions.
There are also repair kits for fuel taps.
