    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.

I see there are some preferred vendors named for gaskets and o rings and such. I would like to change out my Fuel T between carb 2-3. Well I actually would love to leave my carbs exactly where they are but I was suspicious of the molded plastic fitting when I reassembled my carbs and while it didnt leak in the last couple of hundred miles since reassembly, this weekend was the first time I had the bike on the highway for any length and today .. leak. The other two connections were aluminum tube with replaceable o rings and I swapped out the O rings but the center T is plastic.

So who do you guys suggest for a quality T? They didnt have them at my local auto stores.
 
Z1 aluminum tees. Perfect. Jeez, just had a look, they're out of stock for your '82 750.....

I've seen ads for those aluminum tee's but I'm suspicion because they may not be anodized. Raw aluminum will corrode so anodizing is critical.
 
A quick fix for cracked rubber fittings would be silicone seal. Jus rub some over the cracks and youre good for a while. I did that on my old gs1000 and it worked. It would certainly last long enough to get your replacement parts in.
