still tinkering..a ? though...
well the GS650 is running fairly good now...but...it seems to me that I've got too many damn vacuum hoses!...there's a vacuum hose coming from around #4 carb that doesnt't seem to have any use...we plugged it into the fuel gauge that apparently appears where it goes,but??...does it?? plus it *wyes* off with another hose that we had to plug off!...it's weird..we didn't take the carbs and hoses off so I'm not sure where they came from..any ideas?...thanks!Tags: None

Glad to hear it's running!! Let's try the carb hoses from the top ... you should have atmospheric vent hoses that come from between #1 and #2 and #3 and #4 - normally they just hang behind the airbox. You should also have an overflow tube from the fuel sending unit on the tank (in case the unit ever starts to leak!!) that should also just hang behind the airbox with the other two vent hoses. The vacuum line, that goes to the petcock, should come off of the #2 carb - just to the side of the pilot screw. This is all based on CV carbs, what year model is your bike?? 8)

Mark it's an '82 GS650...I think they are vacuum so if they were left unplugged wouldn't it affect the performance...like it probably wouldn't idle right if at all...I got the prime hose from the petcock hooked back up right but the hose from around #4 carb just doesn't seem to have a place to go!?
