Review on Tvent Petcock Replacement 16950 GEL 701 16950 GCF 671 by Brett Tierney

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Does NOT match OEM part number 16950-GCF-671 or 16950-GEL-701

-GCF-671) Both OEM part numbers are listed in the description and refer to this part as a suitable replacement . When it was next to the OEM part it was pretty clear the part wasn't going to work but I put one in anyway. Yes, it was leaking because the washer that came with it wasn't thick and big enough to fill the hole in the Honda tank that was designed for the thick 3mm x 19mm o-ring. Also, the ID of the old OEM O-ring was too large to seal the smaller OD of the screen. No combination of old and new parts could stop the leak. I've even wiped my factory bolts and gaskets, put a washer under the flimsy rubber washer they sent to try and "compress" it into a gasket, and it's still leaking. A closer look revealed a few more things that might pose a problem for those who were expecting this. for direct exchange. The diameter of the outlet hose is for an 8mm ID hose and the OEM part is for a 6mm ID hose. It is not recommended to stretch the fuel hose so much. he will break Also, the reserve tank elevation tube was shorter by 13 mm, so the reserve capacity has decreased and it is not clear whether the last part of the fuel in the tank can flow through the tube. Mesh filter as it ends much earlier than the standard filter. Look at the photos where I have tried to highlight these differences. I hope this information will help you get the part you need, but I certainly don't :(
