Older bikes and performance bikes did not use vacuum operated fuel shut off valves so maybe it isn't what you think. B-i-L's carb had to be drilled and a spigot put in for the vacuum part. The tubing pulled out when we removed the tank to do the maintenance on it and needs to be epoxied in at this point. Max

Yeah, I had to do that to my Amal Mk2. It works very well though.

that's very itneresting max!

hmmm... mybe I'll just cap it of and run on PRI anyway. I know when I remove that tube, it kills the bike.

25 runs pretty good, but still jerky in the AM at low speeds. and now the float bowl drain gasket is leaking! ARG! It never ends! (NOT the previous leak)

oh, ran the piss out of it last night. really wrung it's neck. on the main jet: uphill, perfect; flat or downhill, sputters just a little (above redline). will try a 250 main.
