Fuel pipe routing?

Post by mactat2 »

Hi Guys, does anyone have a drawing of the route the fuel pipe should take from the tank to the carbs? I'm having a right game with it!! at the mo it's running down from the tank inbetween the carb inlet rubbers under the carbs and up to the carb fuel inlet, trouble is seems to take ages to get fuel to the carbs :roll: any ideas?
cheers

Hi

The fuel line goes from the tap down the air filter side of the carbs. Down the middle of the air filter rubbers to the fuel inlet .The fuel inlet should be turned upwards(it should spin with finger pressure). Make sure your vacuum pipe is conected to the fuel tap and that it is sucking when engine is running. I use the web site Alphaparts.com as they have a parts microfiche showing all parts.

Cheers Nick
