Title: Vacuum line seal Post by feelinjunky on 01/12/12 at 09:44:40 I changed my petcock to a raptor and I want to seal the vacuum line. I've searched forever and can't find the plug for the vacuum inlet on the carb. Home depot, lowes, this site, etc. I'm looking for a perfect fit rubber cap. Thanks. |

Title: Re: Vacuum line seal Post by youzguyz on 01/12/12 at 11:20:02 be creative. I think I used a short piece of the old vacuum line with a golf tee forced and clamped in the end. |

Title: Re: Vacuum line seal Post by Arizuno on 01/12/12 at 11:27:23 Any auto parts store should have them. Mine came in a blister pack. There're lots of ways to plug that line, but using a cap gives the job a nice, finished look. Your gonna love that Raptor. |

Another way to skin that cat: http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee201/Digger109/CarbVacuumPortPlugE.jpg I just used a section of the old vacuum hose. I stuffed a bit of RTV into it and folded it over, using a couple of zip ties to keep it folded. Has lasted several years. IHTH someone! |

Newbie Question! Why does that vaccum line have to be sealed after swapping out for the Raptor petcock? :-? |

Title: Re: Vacuum line seal Post by rfw2003 on 07/09/12 at 07:04:01 The raptor petcock doesn't use a vacuum source, so you have to seal the vacuum port on the carb after swapping to it. Otherwise you will have a major vacuum leak. R.F. |

Title: Re: Vacuum line seal Post by RanDaMan on 07/09/12 at 07:07:31 OHH Alright! So whats the advantages of the Raptor Petcock vs. the Stock? |

It's worth the couple bucks to buy a pack of vacuum caps so it doesn't look like that, IMHO. :-/ |

Title: Re: Vacuum line seal Post by renegade1 on 07/31/12 at 23:08:56 now does the raptor have a on/prime/reserve option i thought that i have heard it does not? |

Title: Re: Vacuum line seal Post by zeebeer on 08/01/12 at 00:56:20 The Raptor has ON OFF and RESERVE. It is easy to take the tank of. |
