Not sure... just measure across the outlet exterior? I do know that the nut holding it on takes a 19mm wrench.
Help in what way? We are on different continents... aren't we?
Bryanj:
Measure the diameter of the spigot, i have a pattern, new, 18mm petcock complete with strainer and seals, if it fits you can have it for post cost.

I think the '77 bikes have a different petcock than the earlier models... anyway, I measured across the threaded fuel tank outlet (see second pic a few posts back) - its outer diameter is 13.95mm, inner diameter 8.72mm... does this help?
Bryanj:
Sorry that means the one i have wont fit mate, try looking for 14mm petcock on fleabay.

Thanks anyway!
Is my one no good, then? The filter tube can't be reinstalled and the gasket renewed?
