GT380M carburettor breathers ?

Post by willowden »

Could do with a bit of help please. To the rear of my carburettor bank in the middle are two plastic unions that I presume are some kind of breathers. I am unsure of where I should connect a tube to or from ?
Thanks, Andy

Any pics?
Do you mean the plastic T pieces .
The branches of these Ts are connected to 6mm breather hoses.

How about this picture?
A goes to the petcock
B just vents to the atmosphere.

The hoses from the T-pieces face rearwards and sit under the airfilter, vented to air.
Cheers,
