    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Hey this may sound bad. But how do you hook up the fuel line on a gs1100e 83? There is two places on petcock for gas lines. I know that one go to the carburetors but what hooks to the other outlet on the back of the petcock and were do it go?

Both go to the carburetors. One is smaller and is the vacuum line. When the bike is running, the carbs produce a vacuum that turns on the petcock valve. The larger one is the actual fuel line and should run to a T shaped plastic thing in between the middle carbs. Both need to be connected for your petcock to operate correctly. The vacuum one goes to a metal connector higher up on one of the carbs.

check near the intake boots, there should at least be a vacuum port for each bank for sync, you could screw a port into one of them.
 
The best bet may be to modify the petcock so it functions as a standard manual unit, or just go buy a Pingle or something.
