  • 1994 750 Fuel tank mystery hoses

    I lived in Illinois briefly, and it looked like bunch of washed-up crippled-up ex hippies and wanna-be used to be bikers, and not only were the roads horrible but the there were wheelchair ramps on at least one house per block. I put two and two together (which equals the number of teeth that the average So. Illinois biker has) and did not ride my Katana.

    So 2 years later I move to Texas, and then in the spring some losers steal my bike and when they could not pop-start it, they ditched it.

    Dang it, I wanna ride it! So I got a new chain, battery, bunches of carb and block cleaner, seafoam, new LED turn signals on the way with the fronts built into rear view mirrors, and a V & H pipe set on the way.

    So I take the tank off and for the life of me I don't know what to do about a couple of nipples. One comes out of the bottom of the tank, the other out of the brass colored level sender. Oh yeah, It doesn't leak fuel when set to prime, and because of a paint job I cannot remember which direction is prime, off, on. Duh

    Any help?

        The 2 not on the pitcock are for draining water or moister build up in the tank. On the pitcock as the you are facing that side of the tank the 3 o'clock is the prime, the 6 o'clock is the run, and the 9 o'clock should be the reserve.

          You can ignore them right up to the point when you need them. Then it's too late. They also drain fuel if you overfill/dribble around the fill port or if your fuel level sender gasket starts leaking. Run hoses from them down, past the front of the carbs to a point below the engine and to the side of the bike. (Don't want any dribbles in front of the rear tire.)
