    My Fuel Filter / Fuel Line Solution

    I finally got around to fitting proper fuel filters to my '78 650E. My initial attempts were foiled by the stiffness of the generic 1/2" OD - 1/4" ID fuel hose from the auto parts store. It was too rigid to make the necessary bends and two thick to fit between the carb body and frame. I had...

    Fuel line vs vent line

    Hi. I just got some of the flexible tygon line. It’s wee, I think likely for a small engine. Can is be used as fuel line? It’ll fit on the fuel outlet barbs and the inner diameter is not that much smaller than other line. Will it flow enough gas? Thanks. Todd.

    Replacing gas line and filter

    This is an 81H with the stock Mikunis. PO had installed a clear fuel line with a plastic fuel filter. Due to the crazy configuration of petcock and the position of that dual fuel connection for the carbs, there was a small kink in the line. When I opened the petcock, I always saw gas flow. I...

    Singular fuel line?

    Does anyone know if a guy can use only one fuel inlet for two mikuni bs38s since it appears both floats are connected? I'm having a hard time splitting one line into two and keeping good flow of fuel.

    Gas won't flow through fuel line

    I'm running a 5/16 ID fuel line from the tank through a brass T fitting into two Mikuni Vm34's. I've double checked everything, the petcock flows freely, the gas line is free of debris but when its all on the bike together the fuel doesn't flow freely. there is a tiny bit of flow and air all in...
