Petrol tap with reserve tube
Petrol tap with reserve tube for the tank, catalog number 82-4972, later factory number 82-4972T.
This is the petrol tap listed in the tank and controls figures as the reserve-tube type, part number 82-4972, later carried forward under 82-4972T. It's the tap that mounts on the underside of the tank and controls fuel flow to the carburetor, with the reserve tube arrangement giving you a bit of fuel in hand once the main supply runs dry.

It shows up in the catalog under both the standard steel tank figure and the glass-fibre tank figure, so the same tap was used across those tank types in this catalog run. If your parts book still lists the old 82-4972 number, know that the factory later renumbered it to 82-4972T - same physical part.
Check your existing tap and mounting thread before ordering, since taps vary by thread standard across marques and years, and we don't have that detail spelled out here.
