intake manifold vac q's

[Danny]

Okay the service manual only showa 3 vacum lines coming from the intake manifolds running output from the carb and into the combustion ports on the head. However on reassy Four of my carbs have vac line on them where does the extra one go?. So far what I have is manifolds 3 and 4 have vac also number 6. all the other shoul,d be capped according to the manual. can someone help me out?

Thx...again

Okay...so I think I figured this one out. I must have at one time found one of the intake manifolds missing a cap and in my bright thinking must have just thrown a vac line that had been lying around on it...could not find my num 10 vac line to the pair valve untill I read the number on the intake manifold with the unknown vac line and it said 10. Yet another lesson learned ....fyi please do not dissasemble carbs in aug 2010 and reassy in sept 2011.....yea nuff said. Sorry to waste peoples time...hopefully there is at least a entertainment factor involved...lol. as for progress....rebuilt carbs on bike with all new vac lines...pair system checked and okay...tank due back from repair one day early on Monday...oil change and throttle linkages are on the list for tomorrow!

Soon...very soon!

If you have ever thought about doing a desmog, now may be a good time.

Yes I am doing a stealth desmog...someday...have the kit already. Trying to keep everything as stock as I can right now. The bike has not run in three years so trying to avoid any aftermarket problems untill I get her running well and tuned up!


Soon...very soon.
