    Fuel & vacuum lines, 79 GS750L

    Where can I find a diagram of the fuel & vac lines for this machine? I know there is a small hose on the gas tank as well as the fuel line: where does it connect? Also where does the line from the petcock connect? I'm planning on taking off the carbs tomorrow morning and don't think all these lines are connected now.
    Thanks for all the help,
    Wayne

    O.K. Here goes.

    You're gas line the larger of the two lines coming off your petcock goes to a T-fitting between #2 and #3 carbs....right in the center.

    As for the rest of the lines, on the #2, #3, and #4 carbs there is a nipple just to the left of the slider tube and to the left and just above the air intake to each carb. #1 has no such nipple.

    #2 and #4 lines vent to atmosphere... they hook up to nothing.

    Your vacuum line (the smaller line) off your petcock goes to the nipple on the #3 carb.

    Good luck.

      Hey thanks for the speedy get back! Do the numbers you used correspond to the numbers in the exploded parts view at Bike Bandit?

        yeah, #1 would be the far left carb as you face forward on the bike. Also the diagram only show the hoses that vents #2 and #3, but not #4. There IS one however for #4.

        The hoses on the bottom of the carb hook up to the overflow tubes on the bottom, if you have hoses for them.

          It all worked out great! I took the carbs off this morning, cleaned them up and then forgot what you posted. Thought I remembered but just wasn't sure. Called home and my daughter was there and looked it up for me. One thing I did to speed up the starting proces after putting them back on was pour fuel directly into the fuel line before connecting it to the tank. Filled the bowls up most of the way before I hit the starter.
          Got her idling great. Now to work on the bog down when applying throttle.
