Title: cabie vacuum hose?
Post by: raven on January 19, 2004, 04:58:43 PM
I ran through Marc's carbie-rebuild on the weekend which went really well, but I've gone and lost where the Vacuum hose needs to go. After putting the bike back together I found that I have to run it on PRI otherwise it sputters and dies. I'm guessing that this means I've plugged the vacuum hose in wrong.

The walkthrough is a little indistinct on the matter - can anyone help me out?

Thanks!

R.

The vacuum hose (item #53) in
this diagram (http://houseofmotorcycles.bikebandit.com/partsbandit/showschematic.asp?dept_id=725131)

is the same as the unnumbered hose in

YAY! Thanks! You rock!!!!!

I'm going to have to get myself a copy of one of the service-manuals. Alas, there isn't a copy for sale in the city of Canberra, so may have to borrow a credit card and order one off Amazon.

Thanks again for the help...
