yea because on prime gravity will just let the fuel drain rapidly if its on (on) the suction of the carb. will suck the fuel outa the tank

my point is no gas should be coming out the petcock unless the engine is running ,if gas is coming out in the '' on '' position then there is a problem with the petcock.
i sugest you replace it with one from a raptor










now ,if you yell at me again i will come and kick your arss
