Title: Weird fuel hose route.......
Post by: Ronin on March 20, 2008, 02:26:25 PM

I've had the carbs off,now putting them back on.Why would the previous owner have had the main fuel hose going from the RES nipple to the main fuel (T)? :dunno_white:

The two hoses off the bottom of the tank both went to the left inlets on the petcock.

Were they trying to get by a screwed up petcock? I can't remember if it was running on PRI or ON,but I never let the tank get below half anyway....never had any fuel problems.Thank's Ronin :cheers:

Sounds like the petcock has a bad vacuum diaphram.Tri this if you have 89-01. http://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=19363.0
