Default 85 ZN700 petcock rebuild

I am rebuilding the petcock on my 85 zn700. My first bike and novice mechanic. I took the petcock and had it taken apart when I got up to visit with some friends. Meanwhile, my 4 year old son decided to move the parts and I am unsure of the correct way to put the back onto the petcock. Does anyone know of any photos that shows the petcock that I may look at to make sure I put this back together correctly?
Any help would be appreciated!!

Ok now I see where you veered. First of all welcome to the forums. DIY is for projects that someone already has done or for someone who is looking to copy what has already been done. The DIY section is not really for questions for help on a problem you are having. Since there is no section for your bike, what you could have done is either posted the question in conjunction with introducing yourself (which you didn't do) or you could have just posted it in the general section. While we are not big on moving posts to the "right section" like a lot of forums are, I really think you got mixed up on what the DIY section is for. I also think that since someone didn't answer your question in a timely manner you might have taken that as we don't care. That could not be farther from the truth. These guys, as many of them as I have conversed with in nearly 20,000 posts and 6 years, are the best in the biz. Give us another chance. Start over with an intro and post the question again. I promise we will try harder to to impress you with our mad skillz. LOL
