Help with Carb Hoses?
10/31/05 at 17:56:40
 
Help!!  I rebuilt my Carb, but I forgot to take a picture of where the hoses connect.  I hooked up the gas line and can run the bike with the petcock on "prime", but I need to know which hose connects the vacuum to the petcock.

I have an 86 shadow with a stock Mikuni carb,  the unconnected lines are listed below.

LEFT SIDE of CARB: (with incoming fuel line)
    One hose near the middle

RIGHT SIDE of CARB:
    One hose near the front
    One hose near the middle.

Also, I think that the two un-used hoses serve as fuel overflow drains, but it would be nice to know for sure.

Thanks,   fla-shadow

Don't know if a Shadow has the same carb, but the vacuum hose should be the one about an inch below the idle mixture screw.
