Male fixing - screws into the tank (fuel tank thread inside tank) then seals the O-Ring by tightening the secondary nut. Sometimes this can get broken off in the tank (see advice below). The Male also has a small nut at the top that is thinner than the 2 fixings on the on/off switch plate. Click on option above to see picture.
Female fixing - screws onto the tank (fuel tank thread protrudes from tank) using the large nut on the petcock to attach and seal the O-Ring. The female version had a large wide nut at the top, when undone, shows the tank has threads protruding from the tank. (This can be seen on the home screen of our video below.)

Generator Guru says:
This are a common item to need replacing due to the exposed location of the part. We often hear that something has knocked it, resulting in a leaky, or broken Fuel Tap Petcock.
If you have had a Male Petcock break off with the stem still in the tank, use a pair of needle nose pliers and insert into the stem. Open the pliers up, and unscrew. It should release without damaging the tank. Be careful not to damage the thread on the tank, or you will need to replace the whole tank.

Product as described. Need the 9 'o' clock out let to replace broken part and only place could find this.
In these days of non repairable products, it was terrific to find that you can get spare parts and great prices. What would have been a pile of scrap is now chug-chugging again! Great customer service with a small problem was sorted in an email flash, I needed a slighty different output on the stop tap at 9 o'clock rather than the 3 o'clock I had ordered. My original part got lost in the post but the replacement was there the next day. All in all wornerfully reassuring that someone cares for their customers. Would deal again no hesitation...
The whole purchase went like a dream, ordered, paid for, sent, delivered on time, fitted, up and running. (GREAT)
I would like to say that of all companies I have dealt with on websites/internet you are definitely no 1 on service and attention to detail. I wish you all the best for the future. Best regards Philip Wolf
Good replacement. Pictures didn't change with different selections but 9:00 o'clock outlet was correct when installed. Petcock broke on original, so hopefully additional prelube will prevent repeat failure.
