A new bung and shut off is probably what you need.
The QL plastic tanks used the rubber bung and the valve just pushes into the bung.
Best look for a new tank w/the right setup.
Go through the governor set up instructions in the FSM to get the carb linkage right.
To position the arm loosen the bolt holding the arm.
.With a pliers or small vise grip, turn the governor shaft CCW until it hits its stop.
NOTE: at this point, IF the shaft keeps turning and will not hit a stop, it is damaged and will have to be replaced because the internal stop is broken from the shaft.
Then with the carb at WOT and holding the shaft against the stop with the pliers, move the lever to the left and tighten the bolt.
The carb should now be at WOT and the governor will be in the correct position.

Thank you for your advice. However there is NO 2 holes. It was simply leaking from the worn out 1/4 turn petcock. I’ve ordered a new one. I find it very odd that all I did was take the tank off and it’s now stuck at WOT. I will perform the adjustment. But first I need to check my throttle lever. Possibly it’s hitting something since it stops at wot at half throttle on the lever. It was running just fine, then I take the tank off, and I may have messed something up. I will look into it later this Tuesday. Let me know if anything else is needed. Thank you.
