Sorry, I did a search on this one and all of the posts seem to be for other model years. Where are my vent tubes ( The brass fittings on the left hand side of the 2,3+4 carbs) on this bike supposed to go? Right now # 2 is going to my fuel petcock and the vent tube from 3 is routed to #4. The bike runs horribly and #4 cylinder is not firing at all. Thanks in advance!

Re: 1978 GS1000 Carb vent routing
The brass fitting on #2 goes to atomsphere, open vent. Fitting on #3 goes to the vacuum fitting on the petock. Fitting on #4 goes to atomsphere, open vent.

Re: 1978 GS1000 Carb vent routing
Like Earl said. Your present hose routing would certainly cause trouble.Originally posted by earlfor
You would have no vacuum for fuel flow from the petcock (except prime) and none of the float chambers would be vented correctly, causing fuel starvation, even in prime.And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!
