Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

I have seen that diagram and it is hard to figure out what the fuel outlets looks like. Do you have a picture by chance?

Used to have a 76 GT250, which has the same petcock. This is the best pic I have of it’s petcock.

This petcock on eBay looks correct. The outlet is a projection that sticks out of the side that feeds two fuel lines.
