I bought a 1986 vfr cheap, turned out the fuel pump was on backwards, and it looks rough. The only problem now (fixed some other things), is that the brown fuel lines/plastic tubing that connects both front carbs is leaking from the o-ring seals. They are the hard plastic brown T's that connect the two front carbs, no way to remove them without taking the carbs out, and separating them. I really don't want to remove the carbs, but i do have the replacement o-rings already. but, i want an alternative to removing the carbs etc. so my question is: could I just epoxy(glue, RTV, something) those brown plastic T hoses where they connect to the carbs to stop them from leaking? Ok, I got the carbs out. I just wanted to ask: should all of the carb butterfly's open in unison, or do two open, then the other two follow?
all open equally in unison.... i've heard of the plastic T's cracking, so check if you thought getting the carbs OFF was tough, getting them ON is even harder........so GOOD LUCK !
ok, the t's weere cracked, ordered new ones... so it will be a while till it's running without leaks. getting the carbs on and off was too hard (except the brute force required)
