Correct Fuel Line Routing

I fitted a brand new pingel fuel tap and it still leaks fuel when it is off. Might look for one of those GPZ900R fuel taps

That's too bad and very strange. I can think of a few things around my house that I wish would shut off as cleanly as the Pingle I fitted to my 13.

Good Luck

KZQ spot on,

I have pingle taps on my Z1260J and my GS1000S and never had a problem

Pingle taps are normally spot on & a quality product.

The only problem is............if you forget to turn them off, you then risk flooding your engine.

This is impossible with the GPZ900 tap........which is why I fitted it.

My memory aint as good as it used to be !

When the 13 came out it had an electric solenoid fuel shut off valve

I just looked at mine and it is mounted to the frame ABOVE the carbs.
