    All right - am going to install the Uptite carb filter. I get (I think) how you clip the lines coming out of the carb, put the T's in the lines and then attach the filter. What do I do with the "other ends" of the lines - in other words, the lines downstream of where I just clipped? On my bike, those lines all run up under the fuel tank. Thanks in advance -

    If you look the lines go to the top of the carb. They stay attached to the carb. Where the lines come down then thru the clips, on the back corners of the carb about an inch past is where you cut the lines then install the T's. Filter body just plugs into the t's. Later George

    followup (or, the "how bad did I screw this up?" thread)

    Thanks George - I think I did that, but.... :excuseme: The first pic below, taken from the right side of the bike, shows the filter and (in the foreground) one of the clips. The second pic, taken from the left side, shows the cluster of lines going up under the tank. Those lines had been part of the carb vent lines before I cut them to install the filter. I'm wondering what to do with them. Thanks in advance -

    All you need are the lines that go thru the clips on the rear of carb,they go inboard about 1" cut them install the T's. You are getting rid of all that extra hose. Your first picture the filter appears to be pointing up it goes down. The hoses coming out of that clip point inboard then cut install the T's. usually goes on center left side of bike. Later George

    This is another way. Right nice and tidy. Idea first is to filter the vent tubes,and second clean up all the cluster of hoses running everywhere. To water proof for deep water is simple, the single hose comming out of the canister cut 1" from where it comes out of cannister add a T then just run 1 hose up under the tank put back the short hose like normal. This breaks the vacuum and cannot suck any water Later George
