    1980 GS550L fuel gauge sender nipple

    I just purchased a 1980 GS550L. No Owners Manual included. Fuel gauge doesn't work. I removed the fuel tank and see there is a nipple on the fuel gauge sending unit on the tank that does not have a hose attached to it. Should it have a hose...and where would that go to?

    If it's like other GS's, for safety, there is a little tray that covers the sending unit gasket & mounting screws, it has a drain nipple, at the bottom, that should have a hose that will drain any gas that may leak from the sending unit to the ground, keeping any gas, that may leak, off the hot engine. Useless till your sending unit starts leaking
