Turned the petcock valve from off to on and it started leaking from the pivoting valve. I disassembled the valve and everything was clean and the oring did not appear damaged. I am looking for a new oring that goes on the picoting valve but cannot find one. I would rather not buy a $50 used petcock that could have the same problem on ebay. Does anyone know where I can find a replacement oring?

You can get a new petcock assembly from American Sport Bike

http://americansportbike.com/newdir/Item/17430

If it is a standard o-ring, you can look at McMaster Carr,

You will need to get neoprene or Viton or better.

Hope this helps.
