Currently recommissioning my 96 4TX after 5 years layup. Fuel tap was understandably leaky so have replaced its seals no problem with a kit from Wemoto.

However I'd forgotten this bike has a 'master' fuel tap on the tank, and this has gone leaky too. Can't find the repair kit for this one online, so does anyone have a source? The O ring is the same size as the other tap, and the listed Wemoto kit comes with the screws and the tank gasket, but instead of the 3-hole 'smiley face' rubber insert, this has 4 holes. Can upload pics if I'm not making any sense.

Thanks chaps

OK, so as soon as I got off my phone and onto a proper computer, and 10 minutes' Googling, it's part number 4DN-24523-00 and I've bought one off Fowlers on eBay.  Bloomin 11 quid though!

 

No doubt I'll be back with more hassles as I go on with getting the old girl back on the road.
