Default pet **** not working?

Pulled the hose from the petcock. Not getting g fuel on any position on off or reserve. Would something like that stop working from one min to the next? Cause I was getting fuel to my carb before I started working on my bike today

You forgot to say what year and model which makes it a real bitch to offer any ideas...One thought comes to mind, is it possible that you have one of those vacuum activated valves?

I just came across that. I think it is vacuum activated. When I go to crank the bike I get fuel from the petcock while the hose is pulled. But I don't get fuel to the carb still

Yes it is vacuum activated, the problem is either the diaphram in the pet **** or the vacuum line going to the carb, simple fix for both.
