mods & jets in process....got a couple questions
Okay guys Im in the process of doing the jets and other mods but I have a couple questions I could really use some help on.
1) What carb line do I put the "Y" fitting on?......there are 2 lines...one on each side of the carb...is it the throttle side pink line?
2) When you say to put that diaphram in hot water....how hot?...kinda vague
After work today I removed the panels/seat/tank and removed plugged the smog stuff, plus I installed the KDX snorkle and oiled/installed the UNI replacement filter. It got cold and dark so I stopped until the morning. I still have to remove the carb and jetso I may have more questions tomorrow but thats it for now. All in all I would say its going well after reading all the threads with pics and great info that everyone has taken the time to post.

2) Hot as it comes out of the tap. Don't boil it and no need to put water on a stove to get hotter...Hot tap water is perfect...

Thanks DirtSurfer, I have your install printed out and have it ready for reference. I have read it probably 8 times and I really appreciate you doing the how too.I noticed in that thread that you did both lines but I swear I read a thread somewhere that they did only one-line.
I guess One line is pink and the other is orange...apears to be different size I.D. too.
Thanks for the tip on the water, I didnt figure it was boiling but I wasnt sure the water from the tap washot enough...lol
Im still not sure where Im gonna mount the nobrakes crankcase breather line.....space is non-existent under there
DirtSurfers thread for reference later

Okay...got it all done and she started right up. I just let it run for a couple minutes because Im still waiting on my HMF (although I do have the baffle drilled). Ill have to wait till I get that bolted on and ride it for awhile to givemy work abetter review.
I also still need to install my 45T rear sprocket but thats gonna have to wait till another day.

i was gonna tell you not to waste your time doing the hot water thing with the slide and the Y thing, but you already did it.
as far as the 45 toother, just take your rear wheel off and unbolt the oem sprocket. then, bolt the new one up. tighten every other bolt and don't torque them too hard or you'll crack the hub. oh yeah, you'll need a longer chain cause the stock one won't go around the extra 3 teeth. you'll need at least a 108 link chain. also, your oem chainguard won't go back on either. not cause the sprocket is too big, but because the chain adjusters are in the way to thread the bolt in to hold the guard on. it looks a lot better w/no guard anyways. don't forget the 13 tooth front sprocket. that's the heart of the mod really when you go 45 in the rear.
