It goes on carb #3.
Remember that #1 is under your clutch hand and #4 is under your throttle hand.
The hoses on carbs 2&4 are just vents.

Vacumm line attachment
Hi,
If your carbs are still mounted on the bike it may be very difficult to attach the vac line if you cant reach the nipple on the carb.
If so take a clothes hanger and cut off the straight length on the bottom of the hanger. At one end bend about a one inch length to a slight angle. slide the vacumm hose over the wire and insert the bent end gently into the nipple at the carb. now you can slide the line into position over the nipple as needed. Gently remove the wire. Works like dream.
