T500 Petcock
Does anyone know what size the T500 tank bung is? I'm trying to figure out if an aftermarket petcock can be fitted.

Re: T500 Petcock
The petcock bung on the bottom of your tank is 22mm, Reproductiondecals.com
sells a good quality petcock that is not original but looks the part. #51023-043
I think it's about $44.00 It does not have the vacuum diaphram on the the side but only someone from this forum would ever notice. If you do go with this one or any other non-diaphram petcock you will have to plug up the vacuum takeoff on the carb throat.
