Default petcock valve

So all petcock valves operate the same? Can I get a replacement from the local auto parts store? I am new to this and finally got by second hand baja dn 150 running. After a few laps around the yard the throttle cable broke and I figured, who need that and ran a few more and the cock valve broke. So again I ask, can I but this at the auto parts store?

welcome to the group
a motorcycle shop should have the petcock valve
2 main types 1 with two hoses and 1 with 1 hose
two hose type use vacuum as a fuel pump
1 hose type gravity fed
they come in sizes

You likely have the vaccuum operated one (two hoses). You can switch over to the single style one if you can find it or go to a local scooter shop and if they sell parts there, they will likely have the petcock you need.
