Carburettors ? is there a plumber in the house?
Posted: Sat May 19, 2007 6:19 pm
My 1978 Z1000, from left to right (looking forward), carburettor 1 has no air vent pipe fitted to the carb body, carbs 2 & 4 have rubber pipes which run to a hole on the frame and carb 3 has a rubber pipe that goes to the vacuum feed on the fuel tap.
First question ? what do these air vents do?
Second question ? is it OK that they are left un-plugged?
Third question ? if I replace the fuel tap with a non-vacuum one, do I need to plug air vent 3 or leave it open like 2 & 4?
If anyone knows the answers, it would be appreciated.
