    Vent hose routing for a 1982 GS750...

    Ok...I know where the hose goes to the carb (2) top petcock..one for fuel the other for vacuum. I know the (2) vent hoses from between the carb get routed up and over the fram and vent to the air. My float for gas guage also has a spot for a hose..where does it go?

      Run the hose to the ground somewhere away from the rear wheel. That hose is actually a gutter drain in case the sender unit gasket springs a leak.

              I'm kinda found of me family jewels.........

              So I run that vent hose from the float guage to the air and away from the rear wheel? How long does it need to be..all the way down below the motor?
