On my 94 ZX-9R my fuel tap/petcock came apart. After taking the part to a weld shop they looked at it and said that it's most likely made out of a metal that can't be welded (hence why the part was pressed in the first place). They recommended I use JB Weld epoxy. Now the only problem is that my bike is at the shop and I would like to glue this thing tonight so I can drop the part off tomorrow and they can put my bike back together. So my question is what orientation should I glue this thing back on? If you have a bike with this similar part (94-96 ZX-9R I believe) maybe there's a way you could take a look at it without having to take the bike apart. Any help will be appreciated.
okay, never mind . . . 6-o-clock is the correct position . . . however if this happens to anyone else you may use this picture as a reference to fix your petcock. I just finished putting the JB Weld on and in a day I'll let you all know if that worked to fix this.
