    A note to new registrants...
    All new forum registrations must be activated via email before you have full access to the forum.

    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hi all, I did search on carbs found nothing, here is the question; 81 GS650G, there are three rubber hoses coming off the carb; as you sit on the bike left side hose goes to the vacuum nipple of the petcock,- center hose goes to the feul nipple, on the right side there is another hose between the #3 and #4 carb, where does this go to?

So basically you have the bigger hose on the bigger nipple and smaller hose on the little nipple.

If you have three hoses coming off the carbs ... you are missing one. :eek:

The smaller one that comes from carb #2 is your vacuum line that goes to the smaller nipple on the petcock.
The larger line that it between carbs 2&3 is your fuel feed line, and should be connected to the larger nipple on the petcock.

The hose between 3&4 is a vent line, it just goes over the airbox and connects to ... nothing.
There should be another one between 1&2 that does exactly the same thing.
