Thank you so much! The bike runs amazing now.
as for the leaky gas cap, the cap sea itself appears to be in good working order and makes a nice seal. I think this (vent?) hole may be the culprit? Is it ok the plug that up since there’s a breather hose at the bottom of the tank anyway
Thank you so much for clarifying that. The entire thing slowly started to make sense to me as I reread your words.
So if the EGR device can simply be removed, can I remove the T juncture in the Yellow line and just run it directly from the manifold boot to the rear pump?
Also regarding the leaking fuel cap. Since it does leak when turned upside down, is this something I need to fix or is it fine as long as I keep my tank right side up and not affect performance?
So I’ve had the carb off of my 2008 GT250R for about 7 months. Having trouble figuring out hose routing for reassembly. The bike fires up just fine without any hoses attached & with the carb exposed & primed. I’m not the first owner so some things appear to have been changed. The 3 valved fuel thingy is confusing and my rear intake manifold boot only has one valve, no two.
Is there anything redundant that I can just bypass? If not, I’m still at a loss for how to hook this up.
I’ve labeled all the existing hoses with colors & letters. The three taps at the gas tank are labeled numerically. Please help.
More descriptions:
A(red): goes from the three valved fuel thingy to the carburetor
B(blue): No idea where this goes? It looks the same size (inner diameter) as what I’m guessing is the fuel tank breather valve (1)
C(green): Small inner diameter tube from rear cylinder manifold boot. **No idea where this goes**
P(pink): Air hose from air box to cylinder pump thingy.
Y(yellow): one line from the three valve fuel pump thingy comes out of this, it’s joined at a T juncture with the vent hose from the front cylinder intake boot valve, and they lead to the back of the cylinder pump thingy.
Side question: Put my fuel tank upside down for 3 minutes and a bunch of fuel leaked out of the fuel cap. There were no gaskets there when I took it apart, and the exploded view online doesn’t seem to have gaskets either. Is it supposed to leak or should I reinforce it? Ruined my brand new paint too. 🙁
