vacuum hose routing

Sebastian f7 · July 26th, 2013, 04:54 PM

Alright I got a new petcock for the bike carbs are clean, I routed all the hoses back where they were. The bike doesn't run right. I'm thinking the hoses aren't routed properly.
Is there a diagram I can follow somewhere?
The 2 on the top front of the carbs, where do they go? One pic I looked at showed a T off one of them... Definitely no T on mine.
Also the one on the fuel petcock was routed to the back of the fuel tank, seems odd to have a line essentially routed back into itself. Is that correct?

Do you happen to have a california bike or tank? The CA tanks have three ports on the rear of the tank, everybody else has one port. Plus the CA bikes have a lot of extra pollution junk in there. Everybody else just has a carb.

Here are some pictures:

The vacuum line of carb #1 goes to the petcock and the vacuum line on carb #2 goes to the enrichener circuit. There are other ports on the sides that go to the enrichener on both carbs. Nothing goes to the tank directly.

The yellow hose is connected by a tee to both carbs. Its the bowl overflow line.

Sweet thanks.
It's not a cali bike. Only 1 port off the tank. Is that just an overflow on the back of.the tank?
