2004 honda aero 750 -motorcycle; leaking fuel petcock while engine is running or while parked.
The fuel valve (petcock) on my 2004 honda shadow aero motorcycle started leaking fuel and eventually failed. Upon dis-assembly of the valve, I discovered the rubber diaphragm had failed, causing the fuel to leak out the bottom and further preventing fuel from reaching the carburetor. I replace the whole valve with one off of a salvaged 2006 model. I still have the old valve.
