    I have a 84' Interceptor 500 and after getting the carbs set, I can't seem to find where the vacuum lines go for the petcock??

    I have the OEM Honda shop manual, but all that it shows is the placement for the vacuum lines for the California models.... for the models after 84' that is.

    Any quick help on this is appreciated as I'm working on it as we speak!:smile:

    Thank you

    try one of the intake manifolds. By the carb boots. Good guess.

    I have a 1986 vf500f interceptor and my vacuum line goes from the petcock to just below the very left carburetor (when sitting on the bike) below the carb boot on the intake to the cylinder. I'll try to take a pic for you and post it tonight after I get home from work.

    Hope this helps.

    If yours is the same as mine... Left side rear cylinder intake.

    Hey Loops,

    I just came over from SOHC4. I don't know the answer to your question, but I'll bet Okie will (He's on here too). There is a hose on the carbs for my 86 VFR750f which is an air hose, and doesn't go to anything.

    Always nice to see an SOHC4'er somewhere else.

    JTB

    Well it's nice to meet you!!

    Yeah, I figured out where it goes thanks to a VFR member (Dixlexus).

    Now lets hope everyone else sees my other post:rolleyes::pope2:

    It's nice to be a member of VFR. I feel like :bootyshake2:
