Extra Nipple on Carb
05/09/18 at 13:38:13

Hey guys first time posting but long time lurker. I bought a 97 savage 5 years and the carb was off the bike as well as gas tank, exhaust and seat. The owner was adamant that it would run when put back together. I've put back everything and changed the oil, rebuilt carb, new gas, spark plugs, as well as updated the petcock to a raptor. I've capped the vacuum line and tried to start it up and nothing. It will start if I place gas directly into the engine and bypass the carb. I've looked at lots of pictures of the carbs most members have and I have noticed I have an extra nipple. Can anyone tell me what it is for and whether it is affecting me starting it.

Sorry so long.

It is not on bikes that did not go to/come from California.

I replaced mine eventually but prior to that I simply plugged it with a hose folded over and a clamp put on it. Just be thankful that extra nipple is on your bike and not that girl you went home with last weekend.

Ok I have it plugged, but I can't find a vented gas cap other than buying an O.E.M for over $100.00. Is there a mod to make the old cap vented?
