Justintoxicated Posted June 22, 2004 Report Share Posted June 22, 2004 I cannot figure out a decent way to mount my fuel line sto the carbs after installing a billet manifold and PWK33's If fucking hopeless...I ripped the screen out of the petcock so that I could flow more fuel, and added a hgue fuel filter I posted a picture of before the forum went down.. Anyways the problem was that the fuel filter was higher in the front than the back so the T was on top of the carb tops, so I have been trying to lower it for 4 or 5 hours today and now it's pointed down but I have to kink the fuel line to get it in placce and everything is jsut fucked up now and it won't idle...But before the fuel tubing was also hitting the Pipe so I can't leave it like that either. Honestly I'm so fucking fed up with this new carb, reed, manifold Clamp on setup I'm ready to pawn everything off on ebay and switch back to stock everything. The clamps ons were supposedt o be easier, but I had to dremel off the stock airbox mounts so the filters woudl fit and now the outerwear hits the pipe so thats not going to last very long! I wish I had left the god damned thing stock with pipes and K&N cause all this other shit is a bunch of crap. Nothing fits like it is supposed to and nothing is easier than before. I'm so fucking frusterated I'm about to sell the whole damn bike............... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justintoxicated Posted June 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 I still can't figure out a way to route the Fucking Fuel lines................................Damn after all that work..... Anyone know the best way to mount the fuel lines on 33m PWKs with a 3 inch fuel filter after the petcock? I tried going in front and behindthe carbs but I either have unbalanced splitter tube, fuel lines htting the pipes, or a kink in one of the lines..........

BenBB Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 I got two options for ya: a smaller fuel filter (I run a clear plastic one, Napa 3011BP), or a dual petcock (either mod the stock one or a Pingel). Even with dual lines you may need smaller filters, but I think you're better off with in-lines than the stock strainers. If you keep an eye on your fuel level having different fuel line lengths to each carb from the tee wouldn't hurt anything, it's just when you run out of fuel that there's the potential for one carb to keep feeding fuel while the other is dry.

Justintoxicated Posted June 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 the problem with the smaller ones seems to be that they restrict flow, and sand has gotten past it when i used it before, and thats before I cut the screen out of the petcock....

frocashmoney24 Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 so how about 2 petcocks, with 2 lines and 2 small filters?, can we get a pic of how u have it with the kinked line, i cant really picture it in my head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yamahammer Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 I have not had a problem yet with them been running it for a year and the bike only sees glamis, friends are also running the same filter for 2 years now no issues and he has not even cracked the fuel bowls one in that amount of time.. are the ones you are talking about with the brass filiment or paper...

SDD Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Justin unless you are running alky or a NOS system you will not out flow the filter or the stock petcock. Just swing your bike by and I'll get it sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justintoxicated Posted June 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 the one I'm trying to use is a large paper one, the old one I had had the brass shit inside it. Dueal petcocks are expensive last tiem I checked... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nater006 Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 (edited) If you're trying to cut an angle too sharp and its kinking, clip the hose there and get a small 90 degree coupler to take care of it for you. They do make small couplers that do the 90... not sure where you'd pick them up though. "Borrowed" mine out of my dad's "pipe fittings & more" toolbox.
