Put your bike type an year in your signature line.





If you don't have a vacuum petcock it doesn't rely on vacuum to let fuel in. With that being said. Gas is crap. This new stuff is the problem. It's like all the good stuff evaporates off leaving something similar to water. When I let my bike sit for over a week I usually drain the carbs before starting.

O.K. I'm dumb. What a signature line?




You see down at the bottom of my post there's a bunch of writing and crap. Bike type and other. That's a signature line.



It's in the profile section. Just type the bikes year and type in there and everyone will know.

I don't think they do. Not exactly like a friendly push mower. Pump the prime a few times and it's good to go. The only way I think you can open the vacuum side is to disable it or manually activate it. Maybe hook up a syringe to create vacuum and open it but it would be easier to just disable the petcock.
