If you can get a picture of it that would help the guys. Twist or LK I imagine would be best to know this answer.

Yeah, a picture or two would help a lot. Then the search is on for craigslist and stuff.
I'm sure there is one out there somewhere to be found.

What's wrong with that one, is one of the fuel line barbs broke off?

Kinda blurry, but is this what you are looking at?

And I missed the question part. Do you need a new one?

Dealer should be able to get it also. BikeBandit.com has it listed as 'On backorder'.

Uh, just looking around.
Here's a complete on just down the road from me. I wonder how close a 76 is to a 79.

Thanks guy's there is only one pipe in the tank not Sure if gauze is missing apparently most have two in pipes
etc

I saw these on amazon. I would think that as long as they hooked up to the tank and sealed any of them would work.
