vac sync carb ports location? Noob Q.

[andmoon]

So I am setting up my mercury sticks to sync the carbs and I don't see any vac. ports except on carb #2.

I do see holes in the intake tubes w/ allen screws in them. Is this where the vac. guage is hooked up to?

If so is there some threaded adaptor that has a nipple on one side I can squeeze the vac hoses from the mercury stix onto?

Will the diff. in location from #2 carb vac nipple (the one that keeps the petcock open) and the others be an issue?


I found my bike's air screw ~ 5 to 6 turns out and reset them to 2 1/2 out. Do some of these bikes like the air screws opened waaay up?


83 850G.

Any diff in motor tune from the G and L models?

Those would be it. go to z1enterprises.com and you can order the adapters from them for like 16.00 shipped.

Need to make sure you order the correct size however. They offer 5mm and 6mm adaptors. I do believe Zook uses the 6mm ones..

Nope, you need the 5mm adapters for Suzukis.

Yikes, my bad! All i could remember is that Kaw used one size and zook the other, thought it was the other way around. Thanks for the save Brian!

As an aside, I know that Z1 sells PERMANENT carb sync adaptors for the Kaw's, in 6mm apparently. ANyone know where to get them for Suzukis?
