HeavyHauler Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 So.. I took my banshee out for a ride earlier today around my house for about an hour or so and when I went to shut the fuel valve off to let it idle until the carburetors were empty of fuel it started to leak fuel from the part that turns. I removed the fuel line and the fuel still flows with the valve turned off so then I removed the fuel tank and drained all of the fuel out of the tank. So my question is should I buy a rebuild kit for the shut off valve or just buy a whole new shut off valve? My local dealership has an oem yamaha valve for $45 bucks or a dual feed pingle brand for $127 bucks. What would be the better option for me? My banshee is basically stock other than the exhaust and air filter setup. Thanks, Jake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerzOutlaw350 Posted March 9 Report Share Posted March 9 I would say buy the oem Yamaha fuel shut off valve unless you’re planning to do some major engine / carburetor upgrades later down the road then I would recommend purchasing the dual pingle shut off valve. The rebuild kits are pretty much a universal rebuild kit. When my fuel shut off valve went bad I just replaced it with the oem Yamaha one. It’s all up to you on what you want to purchase. Good luck!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyHauler Posted March 10 Author Report Share Posted March 10 I went and purchased the oem Yamaha fuel shut off valve. The guy at the parts counter at the dealership said the same exact thing about the dual pingle fuel valve. I got it installed and now everything is back together and working perfectly again .
