Vacuum line size Help

Great. You got the clip too?

Nooo, it is the part that is back ordered.. I got the hose, and I had a clip that should fit but I can't find it.. and then again, when to autoparts and all they have is big clips and clamps... and without the clip the hose wont stay in place... gotta keep looking... :-) I am close...

And the clip (for tightening it at the little nipple; there is no clip at the petcock) is part number 13671-13F00

Hey 5th bike. I found out that the small nipple on top of the carb is broken, and that is why the hose keeps
Popping out even though I thought it was secure.

Would you happen to have the part number? Thanks again.

Aw, it's part of the carburator:

I'd try and glue it in place then, if there is a piece of the nipple left. I think rubber-to-metal glue exists.

So just so u have an idea from this picture, the nipple in my bike is a little bit less than half of the one shown... Did not see it when I bough it...
I bought some vacuum connectors and I am going to try to glue one, but I would like to know if I am able to order just that part... Took it to a shop today to have that fixed, and they did not fix it, and made me waste 3 hours there... with all the tools they have and everything... So I came to understand that I will be doing all the work in my bike from now on. :-) and with the help of this forum...

thanks...

I would try to glue it in place.If that fails I would block it off & put a "T" in another vacuum hose to supply vacuum to the petcock.

Hey Blaine. I glued a vacuum conector using a special glue for plastic and then used a different hose, and now is just fine. Was wondering about ur second solution about block it off though... Can you explain that one a little more. Thanks. Look at all the parts in the carb diagram and couldn't teally find the part.


at a shop, mechanic 2.5 hours waiting, wasted and did not fix... Me and the help of you guys in the forum... Fixed in 13 minutes... :-)

Thanks

He was just saying that you can seal that opening, if you couldn't glue a connector in place, and then use the vacuum from another port to feed that hose. Vacuum is vacuum. And if something goes wrong somewhere, you can always reroute hoses. By using a "T" connector, that was what Blaine was going to have you do; just get vacuum from one of the other lines.

yep!!!!!

Um, "other lines" - I'm not 100% sure but I think the one he glued is the only vacuum line - except the big tube between the carburator and the cylinder, of course.
