Title: Petcock opening cap
Post by: skiracer on March 17, 2016, 03:10:42 PM
Has anyone found a cap that fits the threads for where the petcocks screw onto the tanks?  I am looking to cap off one of my petcocks.....

You might have to make one out of the nut from a petcock. Make a round insert out of sheet metal and make a gasket to fit. I've never seen a cap with that thread
