FUEL TAP 3TA/5TA DUAL PULL
Dual pull-type fuel tap for the Triumph 3TA/5TA, mounts in the tank base to turn fuel flow on and off.
This is the fuel tap for the 3TA and 5TA models, the dual pull-type petcock that mounts in the base of the tank and turns the fuel supply on and off. Some parts books list it with the letter-prefix alias F1717, which is the same physical part under the earlier catalog numbering.

Catalog listings for this tap run across the gas tank and petrol tank figures, which is where you'd expect a fuel valve to live rather than in the carb or engine sections. It's a straightforward on/off tap, not a reserve-position petcock, and it's the type you pull rather than turn to shut the fuel flow.
Our records show this part appearing in catalog entries spanning 1960 through 1974 for the 3TA/5TA line specifically. If you're not sure whether your tank uses this dual-pull style versus a different tap thread or mounting, give us a call before ordering so we can confirm it against what's on your bike.
