    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.

How are #3 & 4 carbs linked

skool, would you recommend a particular source for the fittings?
 
Z1 has a nice T connector and the other fuel rail bits.

If you purchased an o-ring kit from Mr Barr, which of course you did, you will find his fuel rail o-rings fit much better.

And don't forget to lightly grease the o-rings before fitting, they are easily damaged.
 
Thanks all ...

Thanks all ...

I did indeed get an o-ring kit from Mr. Barr and I think I might actually be able to locate them.

I was pretty sure the fittings would leak but I just had to hear it run. So now I get to spread the carbs again.

Because I knew I wasn't going to take the bike on the road I did not properly secure the fuel line where it connects to the petcock. That would be the petcock that needs to be rebuilt as it never shuts the gas off.

This morning the garage had a much stronger than usual smell of gas in the air. The line had come off the petcock allowing the tank to empty itself onto the floor.

It's just like Roseanne Roseannadanna used to say: "it's always something"
 
Wheeee!

Wheeee!

Took it up and down the street. Never took it out of 1st. Great noise and great fun.

New rear rubber, a few adjustments and off we go.

Mailing the title/plate application on the 5th.

Now that I'm motivated I'll mount the snazzy red plastic air horns.

Gosh I can't wait to annoy the HD folks.

Thank you all for your help.
